Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose

Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose

Hailed, adorned as Netaji even now,

Subhash Chandra Bose, was brilliant,

Stood fourth in I.C.S., but resigned

Civil services as he was gravely disturbed

By Jalinawalla Bag massacre, influenced

By Mahatma Gandhi, joined congress,

Resigned as the president formed

Forward Block, the group of revolutionaries


Escaped from house arrest in Culcutta,

Reached Germany via Afghanistan met Hilter,

Started regular broad cast from Berlin Radio,

Azad Hind Fauj was established, Jail Hind,

Slogan still alive, attempted to liberate

India from British rule, with Germany, Japan


The fauj touched Indian soil in Imphal

After liberating Andman and Nicobar

In World War II Germany and Japan

Were defeated, retreating I.N.A

Lost battle at the hands of Indian

Soldilers fighting for British rule

Arrested army was captives in Agra Fort

Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose was

Reportedly killed in an aircrash


Pandit Jawarlal Nehru, Bhulabhai Desai

Tej Bahadur Sapru were defence lawyers

With their great efforts, Azad Hind Fauj

Soldiers were acquitted of all charges

The fauj instigated the mutiny in Army

And Navy, labour strikes all over,

Compelled British to leave India,

To give freedom on 15th August 1947
