empowerment

If you hear to lata's (& udit.N) bhajan
"O paalan hare"
from Movie: Lagaan
(attached for your listening pleasure)
 
then focus on this couplet from the song:
 
hare nahin nirbal dukh se 
bhakti ko shakti do
 
loose translation would be
 
lest (we) the weak, get defeated by sorrow
give us the power to fight it
 
In a world when most people ask for happiness straight away
this song asking for empowerment is truly amazing
 
couple of quotations come to my mind:
 
Don;t ask for a lighter load, ask for a stronger back.
 
and
 
Its not the size of the dog in the fight that matters
its the size of the fight in the dog
 
hmmmmmmmmm...
Ratnesh
