By Vidur Khanna,(XII)
Tisb, Bangalore
India, our Motherland,
Built on the blood of our forefathers
Has been kind to us all these years
For which our generation is not grateful.
We do not remember the rich tradition,
The true religion – we live in a fantasy,
An illusion of what was planned for our country
By our respected forefathers.
Look around today
And you will see,
Corruption, greed and selfishness,
One person exploiting another.
It is our fault we are in this condition.
We should work to make our country
A morally upright, progressive, powerful one.
Instead of an imbalanced eternity
India needs to work
For the betterment of each other,
To build a ladder to the top for it’s denizens
And help other nationals to climb up too.
