Republic Day

We Indians are very proud to celebrate Republic day

Protected by soldiers on the border who never sway

Hear me, I just have a few things to say

Reading this you may decide your own way

Over the years that have past

'26th Jan is just another holiday, I thought

With the very recent wisdom, I have got

I salute the leaders who had fought

I hear the media 'flash news' and end up in tear

'Will there be more news on bomb blasts?', I fear

Horrible living in the midst of terrorism and war

Is this what the great Mahatma dreamt for?

Why blame the Politicians and Government who don't repent

Hey! As an individual, I won't relent

For the election freebies and compliments, they recommend

I shall say 'NO' and will not bend

Let's not watch the cricketer's zeroes

And stay away from the Corruption bureaus

Our great Jawans have nothing but only sorrows

Let us bow our heads for those real-life heroes

Pay your tax, be very brave, take the wise decision today

Don't you wish your grandchildren to happily play?

We Indians are very proud to celebrate Republic day

Protected by soldiers on the border who never sway

We the youth, let's speak the truth

Sathya Meva Jaya the!
