“Chanda Mama Dur Ke” is a popular Hindi nursery rhyme that translates to “The Moon is Far Away.” This nursery rhyme is often sung to engage and entertain toddlers, while at the same time introducing them to the large distance between the Earth and the Moon. Looking deeper, it also serves an analogy to convey a sense of unattainability or a distant goal. Like “Chanda Mama Dur Ke”, our dreams and aspirations may seem far away at times, but with determination and hard work, we can reach for them just like the child reaching out for the Moon in the rhyme. It may take time and effort, but, like the child’s persistence, our dedication can bring our goals closer and make them achievable.
