Netaji – The Leader Poem by Vikram G. Aarella

Netaji – The Leader

Rating: 3.5


I am blessed to have been born
In the same land as that of yours
British, were your enemy sworn
As, they exploited the land of ours.

Beyond your age, you were a great visionary
Took a stand, that some thought was wrong
You built a rugged army of Indian mercenary
To join your National Army, people did throng.

They say enemies, enemy is a friend
You allied with Germany and Japan
To bring British rule in India to an end
Hitler did promise you, all the help he can.

In short time, you achieved great victories
Indian National Army, did start its movement
Reoccupying the eastern Indian territories
Your solution seemed simple and permanent.

But, your ambitions were cut short
By death of yours in a plane accident
Ending with you, the dream of victory at Delhi fort
But, a strong message you had already sent.

To the imperialist rulers of the country
That, they won’t be tolerated for too long.
Your countrymen will have the final victory
Which was waiting to happen, all along
