Firecrackers

FIREBREAKERS


F~actional bapus fight for independence with loyalty to their country, their
I~dealism of independence that become
R~eality, which made oppression in heart of the people to vanish
E~aseful pandemonium broke out throughout the
C~ountry and people rejoice
R~ejoice and rejoice, their
A~ction marked the beginning of development of our nation also
C~reated good lines for the incoming generations to follow, their names were being
K~ept in history because their names will be remembered
E~very time of independence celebrating
R~emembering them reawaken the memory of the past judged with the present to give
S~cintillating celebration. Happy independence to my country.
