Happy Birthday Mother India. Poem by Marietta Pereira

Happy Birthday Mother India.



On your 72nd birthday and always, dear mother:



May you beclean and green


May your children learn and play;and not be exploited in any way


May women trod freely the paths they choose


Without the obstacle of gender - specifications and the fear of sexual abuse.


May you be devoid ofscams and monetary jams


May the old and lonely find love and care


May caste, creed and race not have an ugly face


May humanity thrive in every place.


May good be appreciated and evil defeated


May progress happen and setbacks lessen


With blessings from the good Lord night and day.


Jai Hind!
