The Mother’s heart, the hero’s will, The softest flowers’ sweetest feel; The charm and force that ever sway The altar-fire’s flaming play; The strength that leads, in love obeys; Far-reaching dreams, and patient ways, Eternal faith in Self, in all, The light Divine in great, in small; All these and more than I could see, Today may “Mother” grant to thee! [Poem by Swami Vivekananda]
