प्रश्न
Why are the last two lines put within brackets?
उत्तर
The last two lines of the poem have been put within brackets as they do not form the part of the conversation between the poet and the rain.
The lines in the bracket indicate the reflections, observations and thoughts of the poet. He makes observations about the life-course of a song and draws similarities between the life-cycle of a song and rain.
