NEO-PATRIOTISM

O brothers and sisters of my motherland

It's time to listen to our inner voice

Identify our duties and obligations

Respond to the call of the nation

O brothers and sisters of my motherland

Gone are the days of freedom struggle

When people laid down their lives

To free our mother from the shackles of the British

An objective, internalized in the hearts and minds

Of millions of Indians,drove them to extreme levels

Gone are the days of wars

When our unity and integrity was put to test

We roared like lions,put every threat to rest

Our enemies got a glimpse of our chivalry and valour

They never dared to repeat their fallacies

As their fate met with imminent failure

Now when India is a republic for 65 years

In an era of alliance and alignment

When a war is highly unlikely

What will drive us now?

Today the society is filled with blasphemy

Corruption is rampant,disparity widens every day

The youth is disenchanted and confused;

They are victims of extremism and fundamentalism

Leaders want poverty to sustain

Or else they will lose issues to come to power

Our mother is crying

She is free but not free

She is asking us to come to her rescue

So shall we!!

It's time to rise,above all communal and religious lines

Work for the change that we want to see

Fight for the rights of people

For the upliftment of poor and downtrodden

Our blood should boil against corruption

Our valour should be displayed to help the poor

We should roar like lions on every field 

And bring laurels for the country

And that should drive us!!!!!
