My Country India

a poem by Jayati Chowdhury

Land of amazing people,
Hub of diverse culture,
Heart of religious tolerance,
That’s my motherland India.

Freedom that’s only 57 years old,
Revolution of young generation already in vogue.
Wait for years another score,
The progress will be more and more.

Innovations in cuisine
Essence of different tastes,
Tangy, saucy, hot and spicy,
That has won laurels, east and west.

Where elders are respected,
And young ones are adored,
We are all bonded to each other,
With love culture, festivals and folklore.

That’s incredible India!
Irresistible it’s temptations.
A lifetime’s tour package of
Mystery, adventure, rhapsody and hope.

Raised in the land of great souls!
Simple natives yet in modern role.
In every nook and corner of the world,
Warmth of an Indian, well known.
