Peace - Tagore - Sunrise

 Since we just celebrated #NewYear in many parts of India, I wanted to share some lines from #Tagore. He wrote several New Year poems, sharing his thoughts on the occasions of the Bengali New Year as well as the western New Year. This one was written on the last day of the nineteenth century and is titled "The Sunset of the Century."


"Bring your offerings of worship for that sacred sunrise.

Let the first hymn of its welcome sound in your voice and sing

“Come, Peace, thou daughter of god’s own great suffering."
