I write for my home land,
celebrating her 80th birthday
I get wet in rain, i see my tholakari vaana
touching my roots in the soil,
the soil which has seen the touch of my Lord feet
and which has seen the exploitation by foreigners
people lived here, used her so much
and looted her assets and said in their fear of freedom to be given
and suffered the non-voilent movement made them leave
and returned back her space
I salute for the patience she had
and touched the blood pool of my freedom fighters
I celebrate the hardwork of my national,
who did so much and also do so much
The mother of India and my Lord keeping eye
on the borders so that people are safe
this the birthday of 80th i am happy to see
my grand mother who was born around and still surviving,
good leaders leading the states, i see many more
leaders come forward in each home to make
my beautiful Desh a pyaara desh, pyaara Bharath
Vande Maatharam!
Jai Hind
Jessy Jacob.
