A Tale of Bravery

Quote : " A humble tribute to the brave Indian soldiers who fought in the Galwan valley.." The welcome sun gilded, the mighty seven mountain peaks As fingers adorned with rings, they lay aloft our eyes Beneath our feet, the silent sleeping snowy snake Conquered on the kiss of cold, a cambered frozen line. The eternal night of valour, written in silver past Still shining in the faces of unshuffled uniforms of bravery Twenty daring sons of motherland, in the ticking clock of darkness On the giddy throng of foes, fallen lightning strokes. Time was what they need, till the distant succour They fought an infinite war, fringing their martyrdom Until the land kisses, the unclouded moment of victory For the present cradles to sing, made their last salute.
