A Tricolour Tribal President

A Tribal  Tricolour President 

Welcome Lady President of hills 
Unknown to world; till other day
Miracles happen in a flash 
Just as Draupadi in Mahabharat

Madam Draupadi enters Raisina hills 
Leaving tribal land to adorn a royal 
Throne in Rashtrapathi Bhavan 
Reserved for First Citizen of India 

Dedication and noble services
Is all she needed; to be airborne 
Conviction with determination 
Put her flight right on the Milky Way 

Challenges, tragedies, hardships 
Deterrence: none a set back
Sincerity, simplicity to the core
Only service to community held

Background didn’t matter;
Neither skin, nor colour nor race
The wicked folks did despise her 
But patriots all put their hands up 

She was picked by a Shepherd PM
And murmurs happened aplenty 
Yet Murmu was peoples choice 
And rest is all history now!

Across a nation of divine beliefs 
She meant a lot to her tribe; yet  
Her country needs her most 
To make all traitors shy away

The First Lady is calm, collected
Full of promise and intellect 
With fair and firm reflections 
Imposing, confident and loving

A lady as Supreme Commander 
Meteoric is her rise to fame
Big, brave and beautiful as ever
Her journey was that of Comet!
