Patradoot or The Messenger29 /Many English version by Ravindra K Kapoor Originally written in Hindi by my Late father Dr. Amar Nath Kapoor These young boys and girls, were brought up, By their parents, with great love and affection, Now they are mad, in love for their motherland, To show the splendors of their youthful energy. They are ready even to sacrifice their heads, What to say of body pains and tortures inflicted on them, By seeing such fearlessness and energy of their youth, Even the enemy gets ashamed of, dear letter. Triloki was one of these young boys, Who happily took bullets on his chest, dear letter, And kept on moving ahead without withdrawing, Keeping the dignity of our nation and Satyagraha.
