O Youth

Nov 8, 2024

O Youth! Thou art 

The strength of thy nation

O Youth! Thou art 

Her real foundation


Thou shouldst not be careless

Neither be over confident

Easy it’s not the path to success

Thou hast to be more prudent


Daydreams will sluggish thee

And mere thoughts will hinder

Toil persistently

Focus on perfection

Falling, arising will go on

Delay not resuming

Never think of leaving

Until thou hast got it done


Have a look on their trodden path

Their footprints as thy treasure

They never compromised with

Nor enjoyed in their leisure

They met their feats furiously

Knew not even fun

They started, acted, completed

And now it is thy turn


O Youth! Thou art 

The strength of thy nation

O Youth! Thou art 

Her real foundation
