The poem throws light on the mindset of a school boy. He is unhappy. He loves outdoor life. He hears the birds sing. The blowing of horn by the huntsmen pleases him. He wants to enjoy the company of the skylark. But he can find such joy only on a summer morning.
Instead of living like a free bird, the boy is made to go to school. It makes him sad. He hates going to school because of his cruel old teacher. There the small children spend the day from morning to evening and get disappointed.
Sometimes the boy sits for hours with his head hanging down but he is caged. He finds no joy in reading his book. The school is a cheerless place for him. He gets fed up with the shower of words from his teacher.
The boy compares himself to a bird who is bom free to fly and enjoy life but he is caged. He cannot sing in a cage. The boy has the feeling of being a prisoner at school. He is all the time afraid of the teacher. As a caged bird he lets his wings droop down and forgets to share the joy of spring.
The poet calls upon the parents not to be so harsh or cmel to the children. School going kids are as delicate as birds and flowers. They need fresh air and free movement to grow healthy and happy. Keeping them under excess cage will make them unhappy. If a plant is denied air and is kept in dark, it won’t grow well and never bear fruit.

The Santhals rebel against the British because they feel threatened by their policies.

- Period II (Mesolithic)
- Largest number of paintings in this period.
- More themes but paintings reduce in size.
- Mostly hunting scenes – people hunting in groups with barbed spears, arrows and bows, and pointed sticks. Also show traps and snares to catch animals.
- Hunters wear simple clothes; some men are shown with headdresses and masks. Women have been shown both clothed and in the nude.
- Animals seen – elephants, bisons, bears, tigers, deer, antelopes, leopards, panthers, rhinos, frogs, lizards, fish, squirrels and birds.
- Children are seen playing and jumping. Some scenes depict family life.
- Period III (Chalcolithic)
- Paintings indicate an association of these cave-dwellers with the agricultural communities settled at Malwa.
- Cross-hatched squares, lattices, pottery and metal tools are depicted.
- Colours used in Bhimbetka paintings – white, yellow, orange, red ochre, purple, brown, green and black. Most common colours – white and red.
- Red obtained from haematite (geru); green from chalcedony; white probably from limestone.
- Brushes were made from plant fibre.
- In some places, there are many layers of paintings, sometimes 20.
- Paintings can be seen in caves that were used as dwelling places and also in caves that had some other purpose, perhaps religious.
- The colours of the paintings have remained intact thousands of years perhaps due to the chemical reaction of the oxide present on the rock surface.
