Many many years ago our Gurus lit the lamp 
And the Prakasham was born carrying power of the soul 
This light of truth on the lands of five rivers 
It orbited and orbited around the sun 
Along with the earth that carried it as sindhur 
This earthly Prakasham is so powerful 
Of human's universal message of one God 
Four hundred orbits gone in no time 
The great Prakasham has even out-glowed the Sun 
As it orbits all around the sun, even sun bows in enhanced reverence 
And salutes the earth, for all that it carries 
The Greatest Prakasham of Guru Granth Sahib

A.P.J. Abdul Kalam
