"Ode to Youth" by Adam Mickiewicz, translated from English into Gujarati in 1946 by Anant Joshi, who worked as a physician at the Balachadi settlement. The Indian doctor (who wrote his translation by hand on a piece of paper) kept it for decades as a precious memento. In 1985, he presented it to a group of Poles who had been charges of the settlement as children, and who were then visiting India.
