The smooth-flowing spring <br />Gives us an inspiration; <br /> <br />Even though the path is stony, <br />One should always keep flowing; <br /> <br />To keep flowing is life, <br />To stand still is death; <br /> <br />One who gives up mid-way <br />Would never reach his end; <br /> <br />To keep moving forward is our only duty, <br />To reach the destination is our only goal, <br /> <br />One who keeps flowing will truly live his life, <br />One who gives up and stagnates would achieve nothing.<br /><br />asma bahrainwala<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/spring-translation-of-jharna/
