Wish – A poem of La Mancha

To dream the impossible dream

To fight the unbeatable foe,

To bear the unbearable sorrow,

To run where the brave dare not to go,

To love the pure and chest from a far,

To right the unforgivable wrong,

To try when your arms are too weary,

To reach that unreachable star,

This is my quest to follow that star,

No matter how place, no matter how far,

To fight for the right, without questions without pause

To be willing to march into hell for heavenly cause.

Making earth little softer

Wish – A poem of La Mancha

जे अशक्य वाटते ते स्वप्नं मला बघ्याची आहे

ज्या शत्रूचा पराभव करू शकत नाही त्या शत्रूचा मला पराभव करायचा आहे

कुणाला सहन होत नाही ते दु:ख मला सहन करायचे आहे,

ज्या ठीकांनी धाडशी माणसं जाण्याचे धाडस करत नाही त्या ठिकाणी मला जाऊन धाव्याचे आहे,

ज्या वेळी माझे पाय थकले आहेत हात थकले आहेत, माझे संपूर्ण शरीर ठाकले आहेत,

पण मला समोर माझे यश दिसत आहे त्यावेळी मला यश कडे माझे एक एक पावूल टाक्याचे आहे,

त्या यशाला मला गाठ्याचे आहे, मला त्या यश प्राप्ती साठी संघर्ष करायचा आहे,

मला कुठले हि कारण चालणार नाही, मला कुठला हि थांबा घ्याचा नाही,�माझी नरकात जाण्याची तयारी आहे, पण त्याला कारण सोर्गीय असले पाहिजे . . .
