Poem of the day-5: 'Gitanjali'

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high;
Where knowledge is free;
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls;
Where words come out from the depth of truth;
Where timeless striving stretches its arms towards perfection;
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way;
Where the mind led forward by thee into ever-widening thought and action -
Into that haven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.
- Rabindranath Tagore
