Glorious Past Of Indian Schools. Poem by Gangadharan nair Pulingat..

There the king of Ujjain in India
The legendary king, and noble one
Vikramaditya the fame, posessed intellectual jewels,
Where there name is everywhere known
Dhanawanthari, Kshapanaka, Amarasimha sambu,
Vedalabhatta, Ghadakarpara, Kalidasa, Varahamihira
Everyone was glorious in their own subjects
Everytime they made the country glorious
Knowledge is the worth of a country
Danawanthari, the sage and seer of Ayurveda
The Veda of Longevity of life,
The great poet Kalidasa to his credit the poems
Wonderful creativity of intellectuals
Schools where they studied, who the teachers
The way of teaching, the birthplace
Still continues as mysteries
Wonderful may be the schools they studied
Wonderful may be their teachers abilities.
