The poem I love

Kalisa, a great Indian poet and playwright wrote the following lines in Sanskrit on the simple truth of living in the present:

"For yesterday is but a dream,
And tomorrow only a vision,
But today, well-lived, makes every yesterday
A dream of happiness,
And every tomorrow
A vision of hope and joy.
Look well then to this day."

It is certainly a good poem as I read this many times already.
