C. P. Sharma - The Dawn

Hail to thee, O Glorious dawn!
Lady of the Light thou art
daughter of the Sky.

Dispel the dark gloom of terror,
depression and freewill
repression. allay

Yoke steeds of good intents,
dawn on us piety, peace,
and prosperity.

With your resplendent rays
bring to reeling hearts
hope and clarity.

With auspicious abundance
refreshing food to the
hungry impart.

In Nature’s beauteous garb,
draped in diversity,
harmony at heart.

Sooth the dying Earth’s sore! ! !

Let on man the wisdom dawn,
Let man love the flora and fawn;
Awake to environment concern,
Air, water and sky don’t spurn.

O Glorious dawn, we you adore,
Equilibrium of universe restore.

* Touches from Rig Veda, the golden book of knowledge (1/48)
