Arise Poem by Rajesh Thankappan

Arise



In the Kurushethra of my life
Emerges triumphant many Kauravas;
In the Chakravyuh of Kauravas
Lose not your path ‘O’ Pandavas!
The hymns of Gita are but for you
The arrows of Arjuna will pierce for you
The symbol of truth is held by you
Rise, rise ‘O’ Pandavas!
The guidance of Krishna will lead you
The blessings of Bheeshma will shield you
Humanity awaits, with expectant eyes
Rise, rise ‘O’ Pandavas
Rise to victory ‘O’ Pandavas.

N.B: (1) Kurushethra is the battle ground where the famous Mahabharatha war was fought between the Pandavas and the Kauravas.(2) 'Chakravyuh' was a battle formation made by the evil Kaurava warriors to capture the rival Pandava king, the pious Yudhishthira.

Lovely sonorous piece, sound like a wholehearted prayer from King David's Psalms in the Bible, imploring the Lord Almighty for peace, upliftment, and victory against his enemies. A beautiful poem indeed. Thanks for sharing Rajesh.
