Abstract: Sarojini Naidu is one of the main characters in pre-independence English Indian poetry. She is known by the sobriquet 'The Nightingale of India'. Her first collection of poems entitled 'The Golden Threshold' appeared in 1905. Her second poetry collection 'The Bird of Time' was published in 1912 and his latest poetry collection 'The Broken Wing' was published in 1917. All collections of the above lyrics were published in 1943 in one volume titled 'The Sceptred Flute'. Besides, several of her poems were written in the last decade of her life and published posthumously under the title, 'Feathers of the Dawn' (1961). One of the main themes of Sarojini Naidu's poetry is the theme of the people because she has succeeded in offering diverse images of the lives of Indian people and their various life backgrounds and people's verdicts, traditions, and life habits. This paper intends to highlight the theme of the people as reflected in Sarojini Naidu's poetry.
