RESURRECTION
Disbelieve darkness dispels candle,
Ignorance fade education n handle,
Ancient, great people slumber neat,
Lost past glories forgotten lies treat, (1)
Thousand years record name place,
Treat, purely fictions histories trace,
Demand proof surprises n evidence,
Centuries face time swap incidence, (2)
Great culture language under sand,
Medicine treatments, surgical hand,
Astronomy educations study nature,
Martial art n defense warrior secure, (3)
Details of social-structures customs,
Trade business silk ornament sums,
Spices gold jewelry chariot horse fit,
Elephant domestic, worship cow nit, (4)
Invaders arrive land assimilate well,
Alien culture custom mingles, dwell,
Kingdom hundred, start fight bitter,
History shows battlegrounds litter, (5)
Inter rivalry jealousy, raises hatred,
Downfall, of pristine-past feel dread,
Generation see document gone pity,
Ancient university burnt ghost city, (6)
Time tell sad-story, eminent scholar,
Learned from Asia study n popular,
Precious palm leaf book lost period,
The nation under alien rule absurd, (7)
Colonial-visitor capture power stun,
Age discover canon gunpowder gun,
Defeat gun total sword spear arrow,
Land submerges slave no tomorrow, (viii)
Exploitation new beginning n steal,
Vast population in chain pains kill,
Illiteracy, poverty, sickness, rampart,
Early death epidemic visits impact, (9)
Past glory rich assets gold jewelry,
Diamond gold idols crafts thievery,
Plunder huge nation leave skeleton,
Tear of The Himalayas Ganges own, (10)
Century-of-plunder tortures history,
Twentieth-century free nation sorry,
Shed few tears contemplate people,
Resurrection destiny guides simple, (11)
Destiny’s son Mahatma, birth wish,
Father of Indian-nation, lot cherish,
Brought independence get freedom,
Thousand years after, past emotion, (12)
Slavery worst curse forefather gone,
Their cries on torture had melt lone,
Somber thought liberator birthday,
Billion people remember quiet, pray, (13)
Resurrection reminds non-violence,
No cooperation, with tyranny fence,
Mahatma title signifies truth shine,
Truth speaks Bapu’s nature define, (14)
Birthright equality, liberty, freedom,
Classless genderless n constitution,
Pillars of democracy plural culture,

Solemn pledge resurrection, remind,
Protects sovereignty freedoms, find.
Think, fortunate born to sacred soil,
Resurrect dedication selfless nit toil. (16)
