I Salute You, Abraham Lincolns Poem by Gajanan Mishra

For your words, ' for every scoundrel
There is a hero; for every selfish
Politician, there is a dedicated leader;
For every enemy, there is a friend.

Further, O Abraham Lincolns you said,
To listen to all, but filter all
On a screen of Truth and take only
The good that comes through and to stand up
And to fight if one thinks he is right.

Man is the Supreme creature of Almighty
And you have sublime faith in mankind,
Abraham Lincolns, that is why, I salute you
You know the secret of laughter, my dear.
