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 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.
-Rabindranath Tagore
Its 7 am. Been studying since afternoon. This is possibly the only thing keeping me awake, other than the coffee of course.
