69th Swantantrata Diwas, Bharat – This Is The Day! Poem by Dr John Celes

We got our freedom from the British rule
We remember our freedom fighters all
We hoist our tricolor and salute it
We dedicate our lives for nation’s sake
We renew ties for Motherland’s progress
We pledge our duty to ward off all foes
We promise to be patriotic souls
We guarantee our love to all Indians
We hold our heads high with great liberty
We hope to live in peace with rest of world
We show the sign of peace and love to all
We forgive all who try to deter us
We aim to lead the world in many spheres
We support anti-corruption movement
We unite to fight world terrorism
We thank our soldiers for their sacrifice
We air our respect to our leaders great
We don the dress and cap of Indianness
We share our views to make our country rich
We foster oneness and integrity
We express gratitude to Almighty

Jai Hind! Jai Bharat!
