I pledge

I pledge allegiance to national flag Let there be any attempt to tarnish the image or drag It shall remain super most in my mind I am not novice so not to understand and go blind How many people have shed their blood for motherland? How many might have perished in foreign land For upholding the national pride and honor What might have they expected in return for? I am for sure many might have perished unsung? No national anthem might have been aired or sung Yet we owe our head in their honor for brave front This is what all citizens expect from soldiers or want Today we are free country with all liberal thoughts On national front we have undergone sufferings when fought No one wanted any material benefit but only free air Have we given them what they wanted as fair share? Motherland is compared to a beautiful and sacred lady Love and respect shown for all the time from everybody No one can think of harming national interest? It is expected and desired even more as best We have forgotten our past We have lost the trust Our head bows down in shame Where to go and whom to blame? The beautiful lady, motherland we call, is torn apart She has been taken off cloths and divided in parts Who can claim they have national interest at heart? Can any one think of making again a noble start? No, nothing will be done Past golden days are for memory to remain Flowers will laid as mark of respect once in year Everybody is afraid and gripped of fear We are killing our own brethrens Poor are dying everyday without much concern This is welfare state we enshrined? Was that the show for later on to be fined? We have created position to corner the wealth Compromised with nature and helped to deteriorate health It is world boxing match to attract more people To pay for the show and invite more trouble
