and the head is held high;
Where knowledge is free;
Where the world has not been broken
Where words come out
from the depth of the 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
- Rabiindranath Tagore
- Rabiindranath Tagore
Listen to the Sinhalese version as a song by W. D Amaradeva and Sunil Edirisinghe.
