Agneepath - Harivansh Rai Bachhann

I started off this morning with the awareness that i was breathing... yayyy.. survived.. lolz.
Was online in about an hour and yearned to sought something which I had heard a long time ago..and which might just have been long lost and forgotten... Didn't know what I was looking for but this is what came to mind.... 'Arise, awake....and stop not till the goal is reached.. - Swami Vivekanand.' The thought itself led me to just what i needed to read... Here it is...

Agneepath (अग्निपथ) – A poem by Harivansh Rai Bachhann

अग्निपथ

वृक्ष हों भले खड़े,
हों घने, हों बड़े,
एक पत्र छाँह भी
मांग मत! मांग मत! मांग मत!
अग्निपथ! अग्निपथ! अग्निपथ!

तू न थकेगा कभी,
तू न थमेगा कभी,
तू न मुड़ेगा कभी,
कर शपथ! कर शपथ! कर शपथ!
अग्निपथ! अग्निपथ! अग्निपथ!

यह महान दृश्य है,
चल रहा मनुष्य है,
अश्रु, स्वेद, रक्त से
लथ-पथ, लथ-पथ, लथ-पथ,
अग्निपथ! अग्निपथ! अग्निपथ!
