"Why do you have tears? <br />What pain shall you bear? <br />People asked me with surprise <br />"No, no they are hidden cheers" I was moved <br /> <br />Yes, we are free from foreign yoke <br />There is point with joke <br />What is there to celebrate? <br />I shall stand up and state <br /> <br />It is my country <br />Blessed by an almighty <br />With natural resources <br />And backed by strong nationalist forces <br /> <br />I shall keep head high <br />And see that national flag flies high <br />With wind's direction <br />It may speak of action <br /> <br />The bugle may show the anthem beat <br />For all my brethren o greet <br />Come here and rejoice <br />We have no choice <br /> <br />Country is for us <br />So dear and precious <br />We must defend and nurture <br />To find glorious place in future<br /><br />hasmukh amathalal<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/hidden-cheers/
