Salutation to the Dawn

Salutation to the Dawn


Look to this day!


For it is life, the very life of life.


In its brief course


Lie all the verities and realities of your existence:


The bliss of growth


The glory of action


The splendor of beauty


For yesterday is but a dream


And tomorrow only a vision


But today well lived makes every yesterday a dream of happiness


And every tomorrow a vision of hope.


Look well, therefore to this day!


Such is the salutation to the dawn.


- Kalidasa, Indian Poet
