Kalidasa
For it is life, the very life of life.
In it's brief course
Lie 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 is only a vision,
But today well lived makes
Every yesterday a dream of happiness
And every tomorrow a vision of hope.
Look well, threrefore, to this day!
Such is the Salutation to the dawn.
