यदि अभीष्ट तुम्हें निज सत्व है, प्रिय तुम्हें यदि मान-महत्व है,

The summary

राष्ट्रकवि मैथिलीशरण गुप्तकी इस कवितामें मनुष्यको पुरुषार्थके लिए उठनेकी प्रेरणा दी गई है। यदि आत्मसत्त्व, मान-महत्त्व और नाम प्रिय है तो श्रमसे न डरो; पुरुषार्थ बिना मोक्ष, प्रियता और सफलता सम्भव नहीं। अपुरुषार्थ भयंकर पाप है। स्वार्थ त्यागकर परमार्थ और परदुःख-हरण करो—'पुरुष हो, पुरुषार्थ करो, उठो'।
