Hoist our Indian flag,
Sing our national anthem;
Vande Matharam along with Jana Gana Mana,
Salute our Tricolour flag and our National emblem.
The holy book of our freedom
Created by Baba Saheb Ambedkar
Was born today and called the Constitution of India;
It not only gives us rights but also power.
If only we understood the real meaning
Of this important day
We can share its significance
With the generations of the future and today.
Gone are the British rules and India is free;
It is sad that we only acknowledge our rights but tend to conveniently forget our every duty.
We got the right to vote and choose our leaders
But we have forgotten that we should elect
The right person on the basis of his patriotic work
Not on the basis of a party’s name that we randomly select.
We can roam around freely in the Indian environment
But when will we understand to keep it clean and pure?
Religions and Money shouldn’t divide us
But unite us to find the way to corruption cure.
Look with pride at our defence community;
Respectful Gratitude is what we should offer;
Watching the Republic parade is not enough;
Join the parade to turn India from a land of poverty to a republic of power.
!Jai Hind!
Vizzmaya is a wanderer in the land of stories and an explorer in the sea of poetry. She is 10 years old but her life’s experiences make her writing age faster but gracefully. She is awaiting for the release of not just her first book but all her 7 e-books via Amazon by the end of November, titled- Vizzmaya’s wonderland (parts 1 to 7) which contain poems, stories, write-ups and jingles. She hopes they add positive energy to the lives of everyone who reads them and is passed on to others for their betterment.
Vizzmaya Jalal, a Class 5 student of St. Francis ICSE school, Mumbai, is a poetess, a writer, an aromatherapist, a herbalist, a classical singer, a classical dancer, a keyboard player, a basketball and chess player and a linguist who speaks 9 languages. She is an iron girl who sees her bedridden mother medically suffer like hell each day and yet inspires and motivates her to fly higher with the help of my maternal grandfather’s positive energy and take others along with her beyond the clouds of earthly problems and pain to a peaceful place where spirituality and science live together in harmony; thus staying true to her name, Vizzmaya which means wonderment.
