Brave Hearts Of Galwan Poem by Sachidananda Panda

The night of Monday 15'Jun
Was horrific though
On the icy cliffs at Galwan
That turned red by treacherous plot
Doleful dripping of Innocent blood
A smile was still there on lips
As dogs from hack did bite
An act cowardice!

The dogs never knew, that Monday's past
A Tuesday perhaps will run fast
Balwans of Galwan
Would render a brutal blow
To avenge on count, every drop of blood
Shed silent, at Galwan or at Pangong tso

Babu Santosh led from the front
Sons of the soil and the valiant lot
Every inch of land, to uphold the pride
With the roar of tigers, "jai Bajrangbali"
Claws of vengeance, and the fiery wrath
Dance of death was wild on swathe
Torn into pieces all cowards breast
Trampled with scourge, broke spine and neck

Fifty dogs were fodders for tigers twenty
Roars did resonate the terrains and cliffs
Raw valor weighed against the barbed stick
Batons of enemies, iron nails and rods
Premeditated design, the nefarious plot
All fell pat, before bare hands and the gut

Lessons were taught quite squire and fair
To ponder thousand times, before they dare
To venture the territory and the tigers den
Where an ostrich is treated as a stingy hen
The nation salutes the hearts brave
With prayers in heart at your grave
Today when Tricolours "paint the skies
It fills a sense of pride, with tears in all eyes
In adoration for the supreme sacrifice
