My dream for my country

— LT Sanga

I had envisaged a dream for my country;
That is pure and has entity,
Since childhood I had cherished
To build with care like ‘Utopia’
Unfathomable by any country;
Where supremacy of justice prevails;

I had cherished my country to be
The abode of peace and love,
Where blossoms universal brotherhood;
Everyone confiding in one another
Where help is rendered to the destitute;

I had cherished my country to be
Free from catastrophic disillusion,
That comes in the guise of hatred;
That is never implacable, instead
That could isolate everyone.

I had cherished this dream
And I believe nothing can deter it,
Whatever comes, it will be true,
Because it is real and, I have a ‘HOPE’
And this ‘HOPE’ won’t let me down.
