Martyrs Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal
Martyrs
They preferred death to honor
Never said yes for life to dishonor
To die for the nation and holy cause
Constant move with no let or pause
It may be need of an hour
Better lay down life than to lie on floor
Death may not wait and come fast
You will not have time to breathe your last
Chances for bright life may be unlikely and recede
You may fight the war but not concede
Who knows when death may make fast visit?
You will only find the hell is let loose and find no exit
Country may not feel or know it so soon
Bodies may be flown from the border in bright noon
Countrymen may weep and lay a wreath
May mourn the departed and offer roses on death
You may be down literally but in history will be known as hero
Over night change of status from simple zero
You were nobody but now never be forgotten
You may shine on lamp post from small lantern
Veterans were never a war mongers
They were true sons of soil and peace messengers
They made life smooth and created an easy passage
So the Countrymen could lead life with peaceful message
Why one should need to risk the life?
When he has happy life and wife
Soldiers face this dilemma in their entire span
He may not bother where does he belong to or any clan
He doesn’t need any action plan
He may swim across the water as white swan
We may not remember his small contribution
Keep trophies ready for bravery and distribution
Remember he is true and brave son
We should portray him well with reason
Country may offer so much and express concern
How can we forget our comrades and veterans?
Whole nation may weep at your departure?
He did it for the country to finally secure
How come country may forget his sacrifice?
Will there be no tears on their demise?
We have to move on but with slow pace
Let it not turn ugly and push us to mad race?
It may defeat the purpose for which they laid their lives
How many may be shedding tears as their wives?
The may be remembered in history as brave sons
There are circumstances and very strong reasons
Who can deny their contribution for the nation?
There is complete loyalty and stands without any question
Surely no wreath for easy goers, Homage and prayers for only martyrs, With heads down and simple silence, Great respect and honour as remembrance, Nation will mourn death of hero, At home he will be simple zero, Not a word will be said in his disrespect, Sacrifice will not be question of introspect, strong poem deserving of those who selfless fight and sacrifice their lives for causes so believed in for peace. a wonderful homage to may unsung heroes. a wonderful and powerful poem. Jen
Nation will mourn death of hero, At home he will be simple zero, Not a word will be said in his disrespect
Surely no wreath for easy goers, Homage and prayers for only martyrs, With heads down and simple silence, Great respect and honour as remembrance,
Surely no wreath for easy goers, Homage and prayers for only martyrs, With heads down and simple silence
It's unfortunate that people who protest against negative policies are oppressed and killed and nothing is done to remember them. NICE POEM!
