Soldier's Family
Whole nation celebrates the victory of war
But there is someone who losse there yaar(friend)
After few years,every thing becomes normal,but for Soldier's family full life becomes abnormal.
Your child celebrates birthday with glittering face,My child has lifetime tears in her face;
Suddenly my wife gets a letter stating I am alive
Her face broke into smile,tears ran down from her eyes;
She reads more lines of a letter and her face shrinks into blissful state
As letter states about prisoners of war.
She ran here and there,from one ministry to other,
In search of hope to get me alive
But our politicians were busy with thier lives,dividing the nation on communal lines
Slowly slowly she lost her hope
Slowly slowly I lost Soldier in me,
But there is something which fills my heart with pride
Many others like me are ready to fight.
But the enemy is not only on borders,
Somebody is working inside our territory on enemy's order;
Questioning the sacrifice again and again
It is a question to citizens of this nation
Who is your hero?
The one who saves,
Or the one who says:- Galwan says Hi!.
