Rabindranath Tagore was born at Jorasanko in Calcutta on the 7th May, 1861. He had no regular school education. But his education was not neglected. From the very boyhood he began to write the poems of great merit and charm. Under the personal care of his father Devendranath Tagore, he gained a deep knowledge in Bengali, Sanskrit and English. He was a versatile genius. He was a poet, a dramatist, a story-writer, a novelist, a critic and an essayist. Some of his best poems are found in the “Gitanjali”,”‘Sonar Tari”, “Kheya”, “Kalpana”, “Balaka”, etc. For his “Gitanjali” he got the Nobel prize in literature in 1913. His novels and plays are of highest order. His songs are now very popular in our country. He was a great educationist too. He had his own ideas as to how to educate the children for their all round development. He established a school at Santiniketan and afterwards founded the University of Viswa Bharati. I love him because he was a great poet as well as a great thinker of international reputation. I find an echo of my heart in all his writings. And he may justifiably regarded as the poet of all poets. So i love him best and he is so favorite to me
