A tribute to our Indian soldiers

Leaving behind your gracious family 

Lovely wife & an infant child

Waving good bye to your faithful pals

You planted yourself on our 'Soil'!

Never bother if it is a stormy rain

Or winter sleet; Or burning summer hot!

You stand there across, starving & in thirst

Unselfishly to protect every human, every life!

Give freedom, peace & safe guard our mother

But boundless pain & death you pay!

Brave heart & a 'Living God', without you

We can never have, a morsel peacefully!

Far away from home, in the deserts

In the world of rifles, bombs & bullets!

Giving up all dreams & wishes in Life

You stand there across the borders!

The real hero of our proud Tri-color

And a true son of our motherland!

We Indians stand & salute you

As our flag flies high in the sky!

I had written this poem long back. But I am posting here now :) This poem was written as a small tribute to all the Indian soldiers & the 4 heroic sons who sacrificed their lives for the sake of the country on May 25th 2013 in Srinagar.
