This is the promise made by children to their
Mother land. The children pray to God
that when they grow as “men” and “women” they build a future with uncorrupted
heritage. The children ask God to teach them “to bear Steadfastness and careful
truth” as two sides of yoke so that the Nations will be filled with people who
are truthful.
Children also pray to God to teach them to be
like Day and Night. That is, they want to
rule themselves as “controlled and clean” so that, there is no worthless
sacrifice made. The children request the
God to teach them to accept only “Him” as judge and that they don’t do
injustice to their friends because of “fear or favour of the crowd”.
They also request God to teach them how not
to hurt the weak through their “action or thought” and that they get the
strength to comfort the people who are in severe distress. They request the God to teach them to learn
to be happy with simple things and not to get happiness at the cost of others
(not to rag or make fun-of). They also request Him to teach “to Love all and to
Forgive all”.
They are asking for all these qualities
because many have lost their Father and the dear ones because of fighting for
the Nation for all the wrong reasons.

It is the responsibility of the adults to direct the youth in desired direction. The youth of a nation is its power-house. They have boundless stores of energy, will, capability, zeal, and enthusiasm and have the power to mould the destiny of the nation. This infinite storehouse of energy has to be properly moulded and needs to be given appropriate direction. The youth has to train to use their talents needs to given appropriate direction. The youth has to be trained to use their talents and abilities in constructive ways and help in nation-building and strengthening of it.
