Waiting for the Dawn: A Plan for the Prince (translation by William Theodore de Bary for "Ming Yi Dai Fang Lu"; 明夷待访录) is a political work written by Huang Zongxi (1610-1695), known as "The Father of Chinese Enlightenment". A work of liberal enlightenment, the radical text openly criticises the absolute monarchy and other forms of despotic governments, presents early theories of civil rights, and calls for a democratic political system. Huang first began writing the book in the eighteenth year of the reign of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty (1661), and completed it in the first year of Kangxi (1662), about a century before The Social Contract by Jean-Jacques Rousseau. It would become highly influential during the late Qing』s Wuxu Reform and other attempts at establishing a constitutional monarchy in China.

The English edition of Ming Yi Dai Fang Lu, translated by Wm. Theodore de Bary as Waiting for the Dawn, was published by Columbia University Press in 1993.
