Independence Day

Glancing at diamond jubilee of freedom,

A fresco of struggle and suffering.

Those men glorious, and their gathering,

With a vision of greater wisdom.

Where personal motives were preferred seldom,

Spirit of sacrifice was basis of upbringing.

A harmonious co existence they were dreaming,

Where all could work endlessly without boredom.

For our land is not less sacred,

It is beyond one’s self to be placed.

Building a home much bigger than personal interest,

Our potentials maximum capability put to test.

Let this country mine rise to such a height,

And bedazzle everyone’s envious sight .
