REPUBLIC REVIEW

As the hoisted flag unfolds and sways
With quite apparent reflections I gaze

As the spoken word turns into speech
Of developments, progress and reach
Still bitter truth of the adversity stays

For Illiteracy, poverty and corruption
In the state pertain to total absorption
And the reasons none bother to trace

Most of the places, same thing occurs
Leaders rejoices as commons suffers
Presently this the democracy conveys

And just no one’s aware or conscious
The pitiable condition just so obvious
In near future, the existence will faze

But now if you gather all the efforts
And patriotism heart and soul asserts
Yet not one, together all have to chase

Of the people, for and by the people
But now this meaning is quite feeble
Now only on paper this sense plays

So now all have to stand up together
Changing present season and weather
By setting the current system ablaze

Diminishing gaps to bring equality
And trying the best to our capability
In positive way, all efforts will raise

To save future, let us recall our past
Also learn and act promptly and fast
And set all the sleeping minds ablaze
