Our War Cry

“Arise, awake and stop not till the goal is reached.” – Swami Vivekananda

Remember

There is no land for us beyond the earth.

Henry defended Liberty

And the Russians saved Volga,

The Texans remembered Alamo

From long long ago…

All persisted

In the heat of their

War cry.

We can galvanize us

Against the virus;

Our strength is in passive resistance

And ‘stay home’

Is our war cry.

In place of strangled gasps

There’s joy in a full-throated cry of

‘God willed it’

And we can then

Deal a humiliating defeat

To the pygmy army

That has dared to seize our land.

Whoever thought we are foolish lizards?

We can thwart their effort

To annihilate us.

Yes, we can do it.

‘Stay home’ is our war cry.
