  FREEDOM, FREEDOM
  For our freedom soldiers have died.
  Many people of our country were killed.
  For freedom, For freedom
  The people who don’t know what’s happening also died, also died.
  Still like nothing happened, Britishers were keeping us like slaves.
  But…
  We are not slaves anymore.
  We protect our country from our enemies.
  “For Freedom you’re doing this right? ” ask people.
  No… We are doing this so that we remember the brave hearts who fought for our country. We salute them.
  And that salute will be always in our memory.
  JAI HIND BHARAT!
  Live freely forever.

  MY VISION FOR INDIA
  I am proud of my nation,
  Because of it’s successful missions,
  India is a nation of youths,
  It has many good couths.

  Number of state are twenty eight,
  History of india has many a fight,
  It is one of the wealthiest countries in the world,
  It has about 550 mines of gold.

  There are so many community,
  Despite that people live in unity,
  We have achieved nuclear self-sufficiency,
  India has thus gained efficiency.
