Ode To River Indus

O, dear Indus,the witness of millenniums’ History, traditions and culture You feed us with your sweet water And in your lap you us nurture You might be a mighty channel Of flowing water for the world On your course with water southward Moving, marching, whirled But of cousre for our nation No doubt You are, but the life which quenches our thirst, and Grows for us grain in rife You, dear Indus,like our mother And of course our culture’s cradle You feed us with all your love With your sweet water by a ladle You, in the length and breath Of our dear motherland Make our life so lofty, And make our living grand The originator of the culture Of the ancient Indus Valley Begin for us form Monserver And keep on your untiring sally Through mountains and forests And over the vast plains And stretch across the valley Through your countless veins That infuse life in us all And teach us not to give up Through your untiring efforts We learn how to live up You witness of valiant accounts Of gallant sons and daughters Tell us to continue and carry on With your sally of waving waters With your water pure you nourish Not only our bodies but our souls And make us strong, determined To get whatever we set our goals Yes you are, but our beingness Land without you for us sear ! You are great and strong and, For you we live, you for us, dear !
