Here such a poem famous for its confidence-building in the minds of readers is translated and given below.
It is unwise;
A big fortune your ten fingers may raise.
What is the price of this ball like globe?
If you attain name and fame
That will be the befitting price.
Arise! Awake!
Before your fiery eyes
Even the sun will look like a tiny spark!
East will not dawn in its course!
We have to tear it off to make it red!
You have got a tiger’s strength!
Frustration is a spider’s web!
Do you intend to sleep in it?
Arise! Awake! My dear friend!
Your awakening will yield
A great revolution in Nature’s course;
Eat to live! Do not live to eat!
Do not let yourself as a feast for lethargy!
Let us show a new direction to the wind!
The fingers are meant for fruitful labor!
Is there any justice in keeping them idle?
Youth is meant for better molding
It is not an age to go the burial field!
Before you reach the age of thirty
Why this wheezing? Is it not dirty?
Should you give your body
as an abode for crimes and wrongs?
Hurry up! Your fingers are farming tools.
They will harvest gold even in barren fields!
Exercise your body!
Teach it self- respect!
Do not believe in fate!
Science gives you the strength to fight!
How taller
Your head should stand as another peak!
Live as prominent as a pointing finger
Lying idle please don’t waste your life!
Shoulders are your working tools!
Every place you touch will turn as
Flower-garden!
How many saints have born in this land!
Can’t you exceed them by following their teachings?
Do you consider this world as a hollow nothing?
Why have you got so much frustration?
By your thumb!.
You can control
The revolving force of the globe by your thumb!.
You have got the strength of science and technology
to change the direction of the sun!
Come on Stand up!
Show your might!
Even the height of the sky is below your hip!
