The India I Believe

Born from the Indian land,

So fertile, so motherly.

A bird fighting against the chains of the British greed,

The hyenas laughing cunningly at our innocence.

Brought up with the idea of Satya

And the truth, I believe,

A free India,

Adulterated drug-free India,

Discrimination free India.

The India I believe,

One where no one sleeps with hunger.

The India I believe,

One where no one turns their backs on a girl child.

 The biggest united nation,

India.

This is the India I,

Pledge for,

Strive for,

And can sacrifice myself for.

Description: The poem is written on the basis of Mahatma Gandhi’s thoughts, wishes and beliefs of India during the struggle. “I” here refers to Mahatma Gandhi.
