Happy Day Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Happy day

It was happy day
with shine of sun's rays
I landed in my country
leaving behind sad memory

I missed a lot
and fought
with mental agony
it was troubling me already

i faced so many restrictions
but carried on with humiliation
it was question of survival
and I was no exception

I had my son
and that was the only reason
it was matter for satisfaction
and I took fresh breath as human

My country is so dear to me
now i feel free
with my only son by the side
i have decided to go on

I shall emerge as strong lady
with firm commitment and no worries
i shall carry the routine as usual
and function as good and noble individual
