India In 74 Years
India In 74 Years
74 years since independence
Still freedom is what we want to get
Freedom to celebrate
When a girl child takes birth
And letting herself educate
With full joy and merth
Freedom to take admission
In the course we like
But there's a system of reservation
Which snatches the worthy's right
Freedom to put on
The clothes girls choose
Want to have nocturnal travel
But there's hanging an insecurity noose
Freedom to live
The life we have in our dream
But poverty, social barriers, lack of proper education and healthcare
Make us only sob and scream
Freedom to make the day
When ever child hoists flag in their school
Not like today
When children runs for selling the tricolour at traffic jams
And you ignore thinking
"It's cool."
