A lantern in hand
The enlightened man
Sets out to reach
The mountain peak
On a pitch dark night
As he must reach
Before the sun shines bright
And return before twilight

With poor means
How can you achieve
Your target on time
Asks a youth in his prime
Who is whiling away his time
Waiting for the village
To be electrified

The lantern provides
Enough of light
To take one step at a time
Excuses won’t help
Hurdles will be there
If you don’t start now
You’ll reach nowhere
