Dnyandeep (Lantern of Knowledge)

Because the path was thorny and long, And through a dark and lonely land, I set upon your lips a song, And placed a 'Dnyandeep' in your hand. In stormy weather, In torrential rain, I protected the flame, From getting blown out. Dear, O dear students, I pass on my heritage unto you, It's up to you now, To keep the candle kindling-- ----Keep the candle kindling lads, Keep the candle kindling----
