We Indians are very proud to celebrate Republic day,
Protected by soldiers in the borders who never sway.
Hear me, I just have a few things to say,
Reading this you may decide your own way.
Over the years that have past,
'26th Jan is just another holiday', I thought.
With the very recent wisdom I have got,
I salute the leaders who had fought.
I hear the media 'flash news' and end up in tears,
'Will there be more news on bomb blasts?, I fear.
Horrible living in the midst of terrorism and war,
Is this what the great Mahatma Gandhi dreamt for?
Let's not watch the cricketers’ zeroes,
And stay away from the corruption bureaus.
Our great Jawans have nothing but only sorrows,
Let us bow our heads for those real life heroes.
Pay your tax, be very brave, take the wise decision today,
Don't you wish your children and grand children to happily play?
We Indians are very proud to celebrate Republic day,
Protected by soldiers in the borders who never sway.

It's a beautiful tribute to your Republic Day....I especially loved the mention of the"soldiers in the border who never sway" since it reminded me of Nikhilps's poem also about the diligent protecting soliders in the border called "A SEPOY AT BORDER SAYS..........." likewise honoring the wonderful folks protecting your country. This is a very nice look at the Republic Day, alluding slightly to what it honors, calling for unity and wisdom instead of vain strivings....again, a very fine tribute to your national holiday!
Thank you.
