LET THE KITE OF MY LIFE REACH THE SUMMIT!

LET THE KITE OF MY LIFE REACH THE SUMMIT!

Let the Kite of my life unflaggingly soar ever to the Summit high,

Crossing sagaciously all the sprawling barriers, those on its path often lie,

Dodging meticulously the ever dampening and hampering obstacles,

Diffusing, with ease, the fiery, buffeting Bombs of hostilities, it tackles!

Let not the adverse impediments ever ebb and diminish my steady pace,

Let not the calamitous hurdles ever intercept like a stumbling block my Race!

Let me ever, with a fortified and fertile fortitude, all the fiercest winds face,

Lest, I should be shamefully and deplorably deprived of a sure, sweet Success!

Let me strengthen and toughen the string of Scruple never ever to be snapped,

Let me not lose concentration being, by distracting temptations, trapped,

Let the wings of my perpetual endeavour and manoeuvre ever be flapped,

Let my reaching the ultimate Altitude ever be warmly cheered and gladly clapped!

Thus, let no sense of complacency or respite ever creep into me to look down,

Lest, anyone else in my place, should be adorned with the Salvation Crown!

N.B: WISHING U ALL A VERY HAPPY LORY AND MAKAR SANKTRANTI!
