Unfurl the tricolor atop the mast, <br />And let it fly high freely in the wind; <br />Sixty-four years’ freedom has sped off fast; <br />Our days of slavery are left behind! <br /> <br />We Indians are so proud of our dear soil; <br />Let’s work incessantly and march ahead; <br />United stay and none can our plans foil; <br />Let’s pray for freedom fighters who had died. <br /> <br />Let patriotism come to the fore; <br />Place duty before everything in life; <br />Remove the selfishness from every door; <br />We can get success despite every strife. <br /> <br />Like peacocks, let us sprightly dance and sing; <br />Our country is a glorious one indeed; <br />Togetherness can harmony more bring; <br />Let’s plant in every state, amity’s seed! <br />Jai hind! Jai Bharat! <br /> <br />Copyright by Dr John Celes 15-08-2010<br /><br />Dr John Celes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/64th-indian-independence-day/
