A Beautiful Gem: `A New Dawn' (in Telugu) by M. Udayakala.
"rOdasito mEdinitA nEkamaina ellalO

"At the thin line where the sky and the earth kiss,
lo and behold, a ray of light is appearing suddenly!
"himAcchAditammaina mahAmEdinItalamupaina
pramOdacihnahEtuvai pratyUSaprabhalu pADi lEpe
"The vast earth, clad in a mantle of snow,
is awakened by the joyous songs of the dawn's brilliance.
"anantavEdanAmayamu pras'Antarahita samayamu
nis'AntakAla nispRhalE sukhAntas'Obhitammounu"
"Filled with endless sorrow, a time without any calm,
the sighs of the long night will be crowned with contentment."
