INTARSIA
An
ancient land millennia old,
Culture,
customs, civilization, gold,
Innumerable
people languages,
Lifestyle,
food, dress, faith crazes, (1)
Time
tested survived grew to linger,
Hues
festivity lunar solar longer,
Across
the country, names differ,
Happiness
melting fogs disappear, (2)
Warmth
will be visible in winter frigid,
The
arrival of summer farming rigid,
Farmer
dreams annual output,
The
spine of the country grain sprout, (3)
Emotional
today, Bihu Pongal,
Makar
links to the time eons,
Who
looted the country's poor,
Dying
without food cry sufferer, (4)
Killed
natives, burned houses,
Looted
gold silvers anger rouses,
Still,
the land displays miracles,
Flood
the milk-river, gold carnival, (5)
The
bountiful earth, fertile rivers
Feed a
billion lives, feed sufferers,
The
harmony amity fraternity,
Intarsia
in exhibition link serenity, (6)
Unite,
you survive, divided perish,
Intarsia
cultural hues life cherish,
The
prosperity education skill,
Stronger
in history invincible drill, (7)
The
highways, railways, flight
Hubs of
transport intarsia right,
Enormous
effort culmination,
Dreams
billion front, realization, (viii)
painful
hunger and poverty read history,
A
thousand-year country in slavery,
No
more, I cried, hues inviting,
How
beautiful India, women singing, (9)
Electric
their smile, inviting lips,
Intarsia
strewn colored dresses,
Rhythmic,
their dance song is ecstatic,
Enigmatic
intarsia, republic romantic. (10)
