When the road is narrow and tough
Tortuous and exceedingly long
Just grit your teeth
Just walk on.
Doubts arise, confusion confounds
Your vision blurs--- unclear, undifined
Rein in your thoughts
Just walk on.
Steps falter, determination wavers
Innumerable obstacles spring up
Just clench your teeth
Just walk on
Look for that illusive blinding light
Far in the mist, Deep in the wild,
Marshal your strength
Just walk on.
A sudden glare, exceedingly sweet
Unexpected, gentle, benign,
A slow awakening, sudden realisation
Sublime, blissful, infinitely divine,
Once attained, once satiated
Thirsty anew, the wandering gaze
New goal searches, new realms dreams,
Just walk on Just walk on.
-Jyoti Honkote (English Primary Section)
