Protect the nation

Who can be called patriots?
The persons who speak like a parrot!
Or who let the nation down
Earn ill-gotten money and remain richly driven

Japanese earned this laurel
Not in the whole world, anybody can tell
Well about patriotism
And well-behaved people with humanism

The honor for the country is not simply earned
Any attempt to denigrate nation is vehemently condemned
Not soldiers alone show their allegiance
But the countrymen not leg behind and show the presence

It is but natural
That all individuals
And irrespective caste, creed or religion
All will dream to protect the nation

Patriotism comes out of proud feeling
Let the nation stand as well being an entity
Feed the need of all people
And bring out the mandate for the struggle
