Let me take you back on a stroll in rewind
six decades back, we pause on this find
the air is drizzled with tension indeed
a nationless unity looking forward to lead
a man in black graced the path with his walk
the crowd numbed, waiting for him to talk
valor n wisdom bring words of hope
the listeners awed, clinging to the rope
spiriting high, they dream of a kingdom
crazed in joy on the verge of freedom
but this was not just said and done
bloodshed n treachery were astray on the run
massacre of life made a child's play
vices awakened, ordering to slay
every single voice that was heard
ended up silenced without a word
a blood curdling scream stabbed the silence
as a mother saw her child being charred in violence
echoes of pain and tears of blood
people being martyred in this gulping flood
a man plunges to death leaving to drown
evading capture from the ruthless crown
burying lives alive was their flair
the passer-buys torn, stopping to stare
gallant were those who had sown this seed
determined thy were, they were meant to succeed
today no one can seep into what it cost
to erect a country we yet again lost...
