It is again time to remember the day we got freedom and be immensely proud

Yet there are a few things which are always avoided, are always under shroud

There were two brothers who fought together against a third super power

They managed to set the sun on the empire, yet among’st themselves turned sour

Since time immemorial it was the Bharata, land of the saints and sages

There were so many ups and downs yet the unity did remain for ages and ages

Today we are happy that we got freedom from what we call the foreign rule

Yet that happiness is half baked, if we remember that hatred and the blood pool

Once they are separated, it might not be possible to unite as a nation again

Yet we can always live peacefully, why indulge in fighting and pain

Though we take a vow to defend our borders from all bad intentions and harm

Yet we also take a sankalp to be peaceful and see its charm

Once the leadership has true love for their opposite end

Then only true vibrations will their heart send

Before India we are Aryavrata and the land of the Ramayana and Gita

We have the nari shakti so immense, yet so caring just like Sita

We have people who are extremely talented yet dont go abroad

We have millions of honest dedicated people even if few are fraud

The land presents immense opportunities for growth so high

There is no limit, above us there is the dark blue sky

Let us vow to make our country totally safe and secure

Let us cleanse ourselves, make ourselves pious and pure

We have the tolerance to worship the fake if the pose at a saint

This is not our stupidity, but our broad mindset, it is not faint

Let us strive to help the poor, the needy and helpless on this day

Then only poverty will be removed and prosperity will stay

We have to cleanse our own minds of the devilish thoughts that go astray

We have to realize that life is nothing but a light and shadow play

Spirituality is the highest goal with the Sages taught us to seek

Yet they taught us to be powerful and not remain so meek

Let us be proud of this Independence Day

May the Motherland be eternal happy and gay
