Proud to Celebrate Republic Day

We Indians are very proud to celebrate Republic day
Protected by soldiers in the border who never sway
Hear me, I just have few things to say
Reading this you may decide your own way

Over the years that has 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 wont 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 grand children to happily play?
We Indians are very proud to celebrate Republic day
Protected by soldiers in the border who never sway

We the youth, let’s speak the truth
Satyamev Jayate!
