Independence Day
Independence Day
Independence Day comes
Once in a year
Fills every heart with joy and cheer
And mind with patriotic spirit and vigour
It is a red-lettered day
In the pages of history
And imprinted in our memory
It is that memorable day
That wakes us
From deep slumber
Of post independence
And to exercise our
brain to remember
The supreme sacrifices
of our ancestors
Of pre independence
It is that potential day
which bind us to open
The pages of history
And recollect the
Heroic actions of Jhansi Rani
Rana Pratap and Shivaji
And to emulate the patriotic spirits
And great sacrifices
Of Bhagat Singh Sukh Dev and Netaji
Of pre independence
And many such sacrifices
of our soldiers at the border
And corona warriors of
post independence era
it is that hour of solidarity
to console the departed souls
of our motherland
by lending our helping hand
it is that joyous day
which makes our
heart beat with pride
<p>freedom in mind
and salute our national flag
remembering the significance
of its colours symbolic of
sacrifice peace and progress
and the wheel at the centre
signifies dynamism and pride
Are we really fully independent?
No............ not yet
We are still in dependence
We made little progress
Still we are in distress
This is the irony !
It is because of internal
problems of corruption
red tapism brain drain
leading to other problems
of unemployment , population growth
and poverty
In the present corona
pandemic scenario
Let’s celebrate this auspicious
Day with in self –isolation proper social distancing
And by wearing mask
And take a pledge to
Be more patriotic in spirit
In words and deeds
With fervor
And to protect our
Culture sculpture and heritage
with integrity and honesty
to visualize a ‘Corruption free’
and ‘Atmanirbharshil India’
Jai Hind
