Born in eighteen,
Brought up in nineteen,
Brilliant in twenty,
You remain evergreen,
Though you are a hindu,
You have a lot of other friends too,
Christians and Muslims, Men and Women,
Young and old, Caste and Creed,
You showed no signs of indifference,
And treated all alike,
You have seen several moments of history,
Battles won and battles lost,
You have seen several catastrophes,
Earthquakes, Volcanoes, Tsunamis,
You are kind enough to help all those affected kith and kin,
From Don Bradman to Sachin Tendulkar,
From Rod Laver to Sania Mirza,
From Ramanujam to Abdul Kalaam,
You have crowned sporting heroes,
You have adorned great scientists,
You have portrayed the fall of British Empire,
And celebrated the rise of Indian glory,
You have seen the birth of free India,
You dwell in the land of Mahatma,
And continue to live with the sons of this soil,
Sowing seeds of patriotism and conquering hearts,
All these and many more fairytales you’ve scripted,
Nothing least can be said and
Nothing better can be concluded,
“The pen is mightier than the sword”,
You’ve proved your might,
Its imperial that the sun rises only in the east,
But you rise in all directions,
North, East, West, South,
To spread the light of wisdom,
And remove the darkness of ignorance.
