THE POEM OF LA MANCHA
To dream the impossible dream,
To fight the unbeatable foe,
To bear the unbearable sorrow,
To run where the brave dare not to go,
To love the pure and chaste from afar,
To right the unforgivable wrong,
To try when your arms are too weary,
To reach that unreachable star,
This is my quest to follow that star,
No matter how hopeless, no matter how far,
To fight for the right, without questions or pause
To be willing to march into hell for a heavenly cause.

With a handful of dreams, some hopes in the pockets, desires in the heart, do something, do something, I am not as bright as the sun, see the lamp burning in me, how long will you stop me from illuminating my limits, how long will you stop me?

There is no balm in me that will disappear. How long will you stop me? How long will you stop me? You will find many lovers in the world, but no lover can smile on the country. Many have died wrapped in gold and huddled in the heart, but none can smile on the tricolor. Such a beautiful shroud

विझलो आज जरी मी,
हा माझा अंत नाही…..
पेटेन उद्या नव्याने,
हे सामर्थ्य नाशवंत नाही

छाटले जरी पंख माझे,
पुन्हा उडेन मी.
अडवू शकेल मला,.
अजुन अशी भिंत नाही

माझी झोपडी जाळण्याचे,
केलेत कैक कावे..
जळेल झोपडी अशी,
आग ती ज्वलंत नाही..

रोखण्यास वाट माझी,
वादळे होती आतूर..
डोळ्यांत जरी गेली धूळ,
थांबण्यास उसंत नाही..

येतील वादळे, खेटेल तुफान,
तरी वाट चालतो..
अडथळ्यांना भिवून अडखळणे,
पावलांना पसंत नाही..
