雋永流長的泰戈爾頌歌，有一首為國祈禱文── 寬闊的胸懷，不懈奮鬥，清明的理智，願國甦醒……。多美的希望！

Where the mind is without fear

and the head is held high;

Where knowledge is free;

Where the world has not been broken up into fragments

by narrow domestic walls;

Where words come out from the depth of truth;

Where tireless striving

stretches its arms towards perfection;

Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way

into the dreary desert 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

在心智無懼，人可以抬頭挺胸之地

在求知可以自由，思想的世界不會被剝成片片碎，或困於窄牆之內

在言語都出自真心/真實

在不懈的奮鬥可向完美張開他的臂膀

在理性的清流不會落入僵化積陋的荒漠

在心智能與祢同行── 向恢弘的思想與行為邁進

就此全地，進入屬天自由的國度

天父，祈求吾國醒着！
