I am not alone,
Not alone am I,
The resurgent age is with me
And I too on my part
Zealously keep pace with it!
Innumerable arms lend me strength,
And freely draw upon
My energy untiring!
Myriads of men around me
Are constantly on the march,
Advancing on and on!
Along the thorough fare of liberty
There's no despair,
There's no despair,
Nor helplessness any!
No obstacles can stand
The upsurge popular
All are being swept away!
Has snow melted away
On some Himalayan peak?
Soil new is being created,
Fearless, peaceful habitations new are emerging!
Green, red, yellow and rosy gardens
Are in full bloom to-day!
Man is being initiated into humanity,
And sunken cheeks
And the long fallen faces
Their cheerfulness have regained!
Keep pace with that life
And cheerfully
Attune yourself to that life!
