    With Himalayas in the north
    Indian ocean in the south
    Arabian sea in the west
    Bay of Bengal in the east.
    I love my nation
    With developed culture
    And beautiful sculpture
    The people have no rest
    To do their work best.
    I love my nation
    They give us rice in ration
    They dress in latest fashion
    They do many inventions
    Which are about fiction.
    I love my nation
    With number of hill station
    Which are God’s creation
    It give us protection
    And save us from tension.



    What makes a nation’s pillars high
    And its foundations strong?
    What makes it mighty to defy
    The foes that round it throng?

    It is not gold. Its kingdoms grand
    Go down in battle shock;
    Its shafts are laid on sinking sand,
    Not on abiding rock.

    Is it the sword? Ask the red dust
    Of empires passed away;
    The blood has turned their stones to rust,
    Their glory to decay.

    And is it pride? Ah, that bright crown
    Has seemed to nations sweet;
    But God has struck its luster down
    In ashes at his feet.
    Happy Independence Day !!!

    Short Patriotic Poem My India
    Not where the musk of happiness blows,
    Not where darkness and fears never tread;
    Not in the homes of perpetual smiles,
    Nor in the heaven of a land of prosperity
    Would I be born
    If I must put on mortal garb once more…

    P.Yogananda Tagore


    On this Independence Day
    We remember the years past.
    We honor this very day
    For our flag, old glory, has last.
    On this Independence Day
    Two centuries ago, we
    Declared our independence
    For justice and liberty.
    Let us celebrate with joy and honesty
    Happy Independence Day!!!


    My sleep got disturbed, thrice that day;
    I could not sleep tho’ a holiday;
    My mind was filled with thoughts unclear;
    I got up in the morn, much earlier;
    ‘Twas India’s Independence Day!

    Thunder, lightning filled the night’s Sky;
    The day much overcast did fly;
    The Rain was just a drizzle that day;
    Wetted the ground of mud and clay;
    ‘Twas 15th of August, a rainy day.

    The pea-birds howled and groaned that night;
    The Rain made them shiver with fright;
    Though ten, it looked like six in the morn;
    The Sun behind the clouds had gone;
    The Sky ground-glass remained that day.

    The leaky tap-waters that fell,
    Raised wavelets, ploppy-toned and swell;
    Rain-drops on cables looked like pearls;
    Dropped, formed again, enticing souls;
    It looked it would rain long that day.

    Rain-drops hanging beneath fir-twigs;
    Glittered in the scarce light like figs;
    The whole tree was aglow, alit;
    A thing of beauty, don’t miss it!
    The Sky looked like a barred-white board!

    A frail, brown-skinned, bony human,
    With sack on head, bent-back, he ran!
    The Indian was agonizing!
    Tho’ people keep sermonizing!
    Fifty years after Independence!
    What good was done for the common-man?

    – by Dr John Celes


    Our’s is a land of sages,
    Known for bravery for ages.
    None can with it compete,
    Its culture none can beat.
    Whatever caste or religion,
    All live here in unison.
    With rivers, sweet fountains,
    it’s a land of high mountains.
    Its green forests are pretty,
    And are source of prosperity.
    Let’s for it work hard,
    For its safety, be on guard.
