Where the Mind is Without Fear...

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high
Where knowledge is free

Where words come out from the depth of truth
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection

Where the mind is led forward by Thee
Into ever-widening thought and action
       Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.

- Rabindranath Tagore
