Let Us Do It

Question I. What did you understand from this poem? Write in a few lines. आप इस कविता से क्या समझे हैं? कुछ पंक्तियों में लिखिए।
Answer: This poem shares a deep thankfulness for soldiers who bravely fight for their homeland, shed blood, and give their lives for the country. The flower wishes to be gently scattered on the paths where these brave men walk, where heroes have marched, and where warriors have bled. It does not want to be given to a fairy, a lover, or a king to feel important; instead, it seeks a noble purpose. The poem highlights the ultimate sacrifice of soldiers.
In simple words: This poem is about thanking soldiers who give their lives for the country. The flower wants to be on the path of these heroes, not for kings or fairies.

🎯 Exam Tip: When explaining a poem's message, always mention the main theme (like gratitude or sacrifice) and connect it to the key elements (like the flower and soldiers).

Question II. Based on the poem, create a dialogue between the gardener and the flower : कविता पर आधारित, माली व फूल के बीच एक संवाद का सृजन कीजिए :
Answer:
Flower: Hello Gardener! Are you going to pluck me?
Gardener: Yes, flower. Imagine all the beautiful places you can decorate.
Flower: Sorry gardener, I don't wish to decorate a fairy, a lover or a king.
Gardener: Then, where do you wish to cast on?
Flower: I wish to be cast for a soldier or a hero or a warrior.
Gardener: You are a great patriot.
Flower: We should keep nation first.
Gardener: Thank you, flower.
Flower: You are welcome.
In simple words: The flower tells the gardener it doesn't want to be picked for a king or a fairy. It only wants to be placed on the path of brave soldiers and heroes. The gardener praises the flower's patriotic wish.

🎯 Exam Tip: For dialogue questions, ensure each character's lines are short and match their role, and the conversation flows naturally according to the story's theme.

Question III. How do you grow a plant? Write the steps. आप पौधा कैसे उगाते हैं? प्रक्रिया बिन्दुवार लिखिए।

Can you find those pairs for the following words? क्या आप जानते हैं कि flower (फ्लाउअर) व flour (फ्लाउअरे) की ध्वनि समान हैं। अन्य शब्द भी हैं जिनकी वर्तनी भिन्न हैं किन्तु उच्चारण/ध्वनि समान हैं। क्या आप निम्न शब्दों के जोड़े ढूँढ सकते हैं?

RBSE Class 5 English Chapter 7 The Flower's Wish Hindi Translation Summary

Let Us Recite :

आइए पठन करते हैं

Let's recite a poem about what a flower wishes to do.

आइए एक कविता का पठन करते हैं जिसमें जानते हैं कि एक फूल क्या करना चाहता है।

कठिन शब्दार्थ एवं हिन्दी अनुवाद

I do not - such thing. (Page 49)

कठिन शब्दार्थ – to get woven (टु गेट वउवन) = बुना जाए। fairy's jewels bright (फेअरिज जुअल्ज ब्राइट) = परियों के चमकीले रत्नाभूषण। decorate (डेकेरेट) = सजाना। garland (गा(र)लण्ड) = माला। beautiful (ब्यूटिफल) = सुन्दर। tomb (ट्म) = कब्र ।

निहितार्थ : फूल कहता है कि ईश्वर ने मुझे सुगन्ध का गुण व अन्य गुण दिये हैं किन्तु मैं अपने गुणों के कारण किसी बड़े व्यक्ति का साथ पाकर घमण्ड में चूर नहीं होना चाहता हूँ।

Pluck me - have bled. (Page 50)

कठिन शब्दार्थ – pluck (प्लक) = तोड़ना। gardener (गाडनॅ(र)) = माली। gentle (जेन्ट्ल) = कोमल। cast (कास्ट) = बिछाना। brave men (ब्रेव मेन) = पराक्रमी लोग। heroes (हीरउज) = नायक। countless (काउन्टलस) = अनगिनत । warriors (वॉरिअर्स) = पराक्रमी/योद्धा। bled (ब्लेड) = रक्तरंजित।

हिन्दी अनुवाद - इस concluding (अंतिम) stanza (छंद) में फूल अपने माली से कोमल हाथ से स्वयं को तोड़ने का निवेदन करता है। और स्वयं को उस मार्ग पर बिछाने को कहता है जहाँ पराक्रमी/योद्धा खड़े होते हैं। या उस मार्ग पर बिछाने की कहता है जहाँ नायक अपने सिर कटवाने को तत्पर रहते हैं। या उस मातृभूमि पर बिछाने को कहता है जहाँ अनगिनत योद्धा रक्तरंजित हुए हैं।

निहितार्थ : फूल उस मातृभूमि पर बिछना चाहता है जहाँ के नायकों, योद्धाओं आदि ने स्वयं को रक्तरंजित कर पराक्रम दिखाया है। विद्यार्थियों में मातृभूमि के प्रति सर्वस्व त्याग की भावना होनी चाहिए। उन्हें स्वार्थी ही नहीं रहना है। राष्ट्र प्रथम के भाव को यह कविता जाग्रत करती है।
