a true beautiful poem my friend and i think that they will use it as a national song..beautiful images, wonderfully said...loved it
A good poem reflecting patriotism and nationalism. A nationalist
approach under something that unites people i.e., the flag is
mandatory for arousal of faith and descipline in a nation. If in a
country people work with such nationalism in the very best interest
of their nation, prosperity is certain.
