To the Indians who died in Africa.



To the Indians who died in Africa
                                                T.S.Eliot



                             When the war ends the soldiers who took part in the war memories. The memory regarding foreign places which they visited  during the war foreign man whom they met during the war and become friend and they also memories the weather of foreign land all this memories are secured in the mind of the soldiers.
                                           Then, the poet takes about “Destination and Destiny”. He is very beautiful puts both this word into a line

                     A Man’s Destination is not a Destiny”.

          Indian soldiers always will have India as their destination on but because of war they have to travel one to another country and there for their destination cannot be their destiny, than the poet tells about

            Every Country is home to one man
              And exile to another. Where a man dies bravely”.

                Soldier’s destiny is to die on foreign land fighting for their own country. They are destine meet death on the country which is exile for them and therefore where the soldiers die with their destiny. They consider their soil as theirs because the soldiers also know that they would never die on their soil and there for it is better to consider foreign soil as theirs.
