Today is VIJAY DIVAS: 26th JULY, 1999 we captured our last hill from Pakistan.
But... we lost some of our most valuable, great, brave, warrior BROTHERS.
I SALUTE to all those who have pledged their lives, for our PEACE - JAI HIND
This salute is for those who... :
*
Lost their lives, trying to save the lives of millions of Indians
*
Thought that Country comes first and their own family later.
*
Bravely faught the war
*
Gave everything that they had.. without expecting anything in return.
*
Never slept nights together so that we could sleep peacefully.
*
Left their wives and children... for the safety of the Nation
I see that Americans have this yellow ribbon on their cars, which expresses how grateful they are to their troops... I really liked that Idea.
Here's a song to our troops, who sacrificed their precious life for us! - By Russ Morgan
Around her neck she wore a yellow ribbon
She wore it in the springtime
And in the month of May
And if you ask me why the heck she wore it
She wore it for her soldier who was far far away
Far away, far away
She wore it for her soldier
Who was far, far away
Around the block she pushed a baby carriage
She pushed it in the springtime
And in the month of May
And if you ask me why the heck she pushed it
She pushed it for her soldier who was far far away
Far away, far away
She pushed it for her soldier
Who was far, far away
Behind the door her daddy kept a shotgun
He kept it in the springtime
And in the month of May
And if you ask me why the heck he kept it
He kept it for her soldier who was far far away
Far away, far away
He kept it for her soldier
Who was far, far away
And this one, in our own Language :)
aye mere vatan ke logon
tum khoob laga lo naara
ye shubh din hai ham sab ka
lahara lo tiranga pyaara
par mat bhoolo seema par
veeron ne hai praan ganvaaye
kuch yaad unhein bhi kar lo
jo laut ke ghar na aaye
aye mere vatan ke logon
zara aankh mein bhar lo paani
jo shaheed hue hain unki
zara yaad karo qurbaani
jab ghayal hua himaalay
khatre mein padi aazadi
jab tak thi saans lade vo
phir apni laash bichha di
sangeen pe dhar kar maatha
so gaye amar balidaani
jo shaheed...
jab desh mein thi diwali
vo khel rahe the holi
jab ham baithe the gharon mein
vo jhel rahe the goli
the dhanya javaan vo aapane
thi dhanya vo unaki javaani
jo shaheed ...
koi sikh koi jaat maraatha
koi gurakha koi madaraasi
sarahad pe maranevaala
har veer tha bhaaratavaas
jo khoon gira parvat par
vo khoon tha hindustaani
jo shaheed...
thi khoon se lath-path kaaya
phir bhi bandook uthaake
das-das ko ek ne maara
phir gir gaye hosh ganva ke
jab ant-samay aaya to
kah gaye ke ab marate hain
khush rahana desh ke pyaaron
ab ham to safar karate hain
kya log the vo deewane
kya log the vo abhimaani
jo shaheed...
tum bhool na jaao unko
is liye kahi ye kahaani
jo shaheed...
jay hind jay hind ki sena
jay hind, jay hind, jay hind
I was listening to this song today... and I am amazed the kind of patriotic feeling it brings out in you....
