And yielded the sons of my stricken womb
To the drum-beats of the duty, the sabers of doom…..”

Cool with thy winds of delight,
Dark fields waving, Mother of might,
Mother free......."

4. I Love My Country
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 a number of hill station
Which are God’s creation
It gives us protection
And save us from tension.
5. Gitanjali 35
"Where the mind is without fear
and the head is held high;
Where knowledge is free;
Where the world has not been
broken up into fragments by
narrow domestic walls;
Where words come out from
the depth of truth;
Where tireless striving stretches
its arms towards perfection;
Where the clear stream of reason
has not lost its way into the dreary
desert sand of dead habit;
Where the mind is lead forward by thee
into ever-widening thought and action-
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father,
let my country awake."
– by Rabindranath Tagore
