-
Where
the mind is without fear and the head is held high;Where
knowledge is free;Where
the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls;Where
words come out from the depth of truth;Where
tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection;Where
the clear stream of reason has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of
dead habit;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.
