The poem ‘Snake’ has been composed by D.H. Lawrence. This poem is about a thirsty snake.
‘साँप’ कविता को डी.एच. लौरेंस के द्वारा संकलित किया गया है। यह पाठ एक प्यासा साँप से संबंधित है।
It was very hot time. The poet feels very thirsty, he goes to his tub to drink water. A snake came near that tub, which was thirsty. The snake went into the tub and drank the water and started going back towards its cave.
बहुत गर्मी का समय था। कवि को बहुत प्यास लगती है, वह अपने टब के पास पानी पीने के लिए जाते हैं। उस टब के पास एक साँप आया, जो प्यासा था। साँप ने टब में जाकर पानी पीया और वापस अपने गुफा की तरफ जाने लगा।
The poet thought that this snake should be killed. Because he knew that golden colored snake is poisonous.
कवि ने सोचा कि इस साँप को मार देना चाहिए। क्योंकि वह जानते थे कि सुनहरे रंग का साँप जहरीला होता है।
When the snake was going to the cave of the wall after drinking water. The poet picked up a piece of wood and hit it on the snake’s tail. The snake soon drove itself into the torn hole in the wall.
साँप पानी पीकर जब दीवार के गुफा में जा रहा था। कवि ने एक लकड़ी का टुकड़ा उठाया और उस साँप के पूँछ पर मार दिया। साँप जल्द ही अपने आप को दीवार के फटी छेद में चला गया।
When the poet killed the snake, he felt remorse. He seemed to be the king of the uncrowned. The poet began to atone for his work.
कवि ने जब साँप को मार दिया, तो उन्हें पछतावा होने लगा। वह बेताज का बादशाह प्रतीत होने लगा। कवि अपने काम पर प्रायश्चित करने लगे।
In this way, the poet gives the message of protecting small creatures through this poem.
