HEADING FOR A SACRIFICE

I am seeing the pleasure of the end,

Approaching victory, as death seeps in.

No regrets, but my heart will never bend,
Fearing death. the country who lent
Life,birth and being; For her we will win.
Over darkness, cold, hunger and wind.
Today, the howling death will be kinned
To a soldier's mortality.
But the reasonless hostility
That my country lives, pains.
Their blood on the snow,
While they wander in the heaven's lanes.
My country sinks with pride
And then rises again to fight.
I know, i will be gone with a blow
From mother's lap to Almighty's feet.
I will smile in life and afterlife
Because i know, India will live, i die or not,
There will be celebrations even if our bodies rot
In this snow. I know not about me,
But i will win, living or dead
And our motherland's head
Will be held high ever
For her soldiers are hers forever.
