4. Stanza 2

Explanation:

 

The poet says the wind is cleverly teasing the weak people and objects. He does not intend to praise the wind, but he says the wind can only make fun of the weak. Wind cannot move strong people or objects. The wind is making fun of weak things that are about to break and fall apart.

  

 

  

 

The poet calls wind God as it symbolises power. The poet wants people to be strong to face obstacles in our life. He repeats the words 'crumbling' to bring out the fact that it only crushes weak ones and not the strong ones. The poet indirectly conveys that if we stand against obstacles in life, we will succeed in our lives.

 

In addition, Bharati wrote this poem during the British rule of India prior to independence. The British have used a similar strategy of crushing the poor. India was only released from the bondage of British rule after the Indians strengthened themselves.
