Hira-Singh's Farewell to Burmah

by Laurence Hope

As the sun dips below the horizon, casting its golden hues across the Irrawaddy River, a young man named Hira-Singh stands on the deck of a departing boat, his heart heavy with the weight of farewell. In Laurence Hope's evocative poem, "Hira-Singh's Farewell to Burmah," we are transported to the heart of colonial Burma, where the allure of adventure intertwines with the bittersweet pangs of leaving one's homeland.
