Robert Frost: A Renowned Poet

Robert Frost is a shining star of world literature. Frost, who could paint vivid pictures of nature and life in simple language and style, was born in 1874 in San Francisco, USA.

Frost, who writes about nature, rural life, solitude, moral choices, and the importance of life, many of his poems still feel relevant today. Frost is the only poet to have received the Pulitzer Prize four times in his lifetime.

More than 9 of his books, including 'A Boy's Will' and 'North of Boston', have been published. He is still equally famous for many works including 'The Road Not Taken', 'Mending Wall'.

We have presented the Nepali translation of the world-famous poet's widely acclaimed 'Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening'.

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening

I think I know whose woods these are.
But his house is in the village over there,
He will not see me stopping here.
He will not see me looking at his woods filled with snow.

My little horse must think it strange
Why it is stopping where there is no farmhouse
Between the woods and frozen lake,
The darkest evening of the year.

He shakes his harness bells to ask
If there is some mistake.
The only other sound’s the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
