Try and fail, But never fail to try

Here are two poems that caught my attention recently.

Let there be hope,
Hope in your heart,
Your determination will take you very far; 

Try and fail,
But never fail to try;
For the smile is valued most,
When you learn to cry; 

Others may see you as defeated,
But success often comes when failures are repeated;
For when you fail,
You break out of jail,
The jail of your comfort zone;
And there is no better way to find the path to success,
For the skills of success to hone; 

Try and fail,
But never fail to try;
For the smile is valued most

When you learn to cry..!

Long back a renowned poet of Hindi, National Poet Shri Maithili Sharan Gupt wrote this poem that can inspire anyone

नर हो न निराश करो मन को - you are (hu)man, don't despair

कुछ काम करो कुछ काम करो - do something, do something
जग में रह के निज नाम करो। - and make a name in this world

यह जन्म हुआ किस अर्थ अहो! - tell me why you are born [as human] ?
समझो जिसमें यह व्यर्थ न हो। - understand, so it is not wasted
कुछ तो उपयुक्त करो तन को  - make your body [self] able for something
नर हो न निराश करो मन को। - you are (hu)man, don't despair

सँभलो कि सुयोग न जाए चला - careful! lest the opportunity passes away
कब व्यर्थ हुआ सदुपाय भला! - when has proper effort been wasted?
समझो जग को न निरा सपना - don't think the world is a mere dream
पथ आप प्रशस्त करो अपना। - light up your path on your own [abilities]
अखिलेश्वर है अवलम्बन को - the divine is there for support
नर हो न निराश करो मन को।। - you are (hu)man, don't despair

जब प्राप्त तुम्हें सब तत्त्व यहाँ - when you have everything available
फिर जा सकता वह सत्त्व कहाँ! - where can the essence [of Self] go?
तुम स्वत्त्व सुधा रस पान करो - drink the nectar of self-reliance
उठ के अमरत्व विधान करो। - rise up and reach out immortality
दवरूप रहो भव कानन को - burn like wildfire in the world-forest (with your
deeds)
नर हो न निराश करो मन को।। - you are (hu)man, don't despair

निज गौरव का नित ज्ञान रहे - realize your self-esteem always
हम भी कुछ हैं यह ध्यान रहे। - 'i am also something' - keep in mind
सब जाय अभी पर मान रहे - let everything go but self-respect
मरणोत्तर गुंजित गान रहे। - let your 'song' reverberate even after death
कुछ हो न तजो निज साधन को - no matter what, don't leave your goal/path
नर हो न निराश करो मन को।। - you are (hu)man, don't despair
