Where the mind is without fear
and the head is held high
where knowledge is free
where the world has not been
broken into fragments
by narrow domestic walls
where words come out
from the depths of truth
where tireless striving
stretches its arms towards perfection
where the clear stream of reason
has not lost its way
into the dreary desert sand
of dead habit
where the mind is led forward by thee
into ever widening thought and action
into that heaven of freedom,
my father,
let my country awake
Thank You Mother
for delivering the mind
from fear
Please Mother
now, deliver us from the mind
Thank You Mother
for keeping the promise
of making us so truly capable
of holding our heads high with pride
for our achievements
Now O Merciful One
teach us to bow in gratitude
for what our achievements have taught us
Thank You Great One
for letting us awake
in our dear motherland
where knowledge is free!
for that grace..
that has sustained us so long
O dear Mother
Who is Mercy Herself..
won’t You in time make us
free of this knowledge?
I know dear Mother
this world You created
is lying in fragments now..
we need You Mother
to put it back together
to get the clear picture
of whether
there is indeed a world
that is not You
Grateful Thanks Loving Mother
for letting the words
spring from the depths of
the fountain of Truth
How should we have survived
without this grace?
Please now Mother..Carry us
to the Truth
that is beyond words
or any form of expression..
Take us there Mother
Take us there
Take us Mother..
where there is no painful striving..
where Truth just happens..
Take us Mother..
where the clear stream of reason
flows spontaneously
into the Ocean of unconditional Love
and unreasoning surrender…
Let my country awake Mother
as Freedom itself
where thought..word..and action
unite
to form complete emptiness
where You don’t have to carry us any longer
where Mother there is no one to sleep
and no one to awake!
where we become YOU
If we truly deserve it..
Give us Mother…the grace
to Be..
to just Be!!
