Save me not from dangers
give me the courage to face them.
I don’t want your consolation
for my aching heart, grieving soul
give me the power to overcome grief.
Don’t provide me shelter against problem
give me the strength of facing problems.
Even if I am deprived everywhere, lose all
let my soul never accept it as loss.
Don’t rescue me when I am in trouble
give me the power to overcome it.
Don’t carry my loads for me
give me the strength to carry it myself.
When I am happy let your face shine
in my humble, loving heart.
When the entire world turns my foe
let me not suspect your glory for a second.
Rabindranath Tagore.
