Tarapada Mohapatra

We all are creations
of the Holy Mother
Her gifted children
symbols of peace and unity
future of the mother earth.

Let us all in unison
pray with reverence to God
for giving us courage in bold
to face the vagaries of tiding time
and to teach us the mantras
of peace, prayer and love.

No more wars or blood bathing
no more kurukhestra or kargil
because we all are God’s gifts
and blessed with divine kiss
Let the thorns stop pricking
only the beatific fragrance
of beautiful flowers be thine.

Let us all say no to terrorism
no to 9/11, hatred or killings
we are all his holy creations
brethren and sisters
we belong to no caste
creed or faction.

The news of bloodshed and tyranny
all across our mother land
