A Prayer For A Free India Poem by Vivek Tiwari

May our minds be fearless,
And our hearts unwavering;
May knowledge light every home,
And truth guide every endeavour.

May no child inherit the chains of prejudice,
Nor any dream be limited by circumstance;
May every hand build, every mind question,
And every soul serve the nation with pride.

May India rise not merely in strength,
But in wisdom, compassion and character;
A nation where freedom is lived with responsibility,
And progress walks hand in hand with humanity.

May we honour the freedom we received
By becoming worthy of the future we inherit;
For the truest tribute to our martyrs
Is not merely to remember their sacrifice—
But to build the India they dreamed of.

वन्दे मातरम्।
