Dream Land *Ms. Manmohini Bakshi | |
My children once put me a question, Tell us about our place of birth; Eager to know about our home and hearth, I was shaken but could not refrain; Down went my mind in the memory lane, Behold my self and tried to explain; Do you know where from you hail? It is the beautiful Kashmir Vale! Most sacred is your place of birth, It is known as paradise on earth; It is the crown of India, It is the pride of India! It is guarded by hills and mountains, It is full of falls and fountains; It is full of lakes and rivers, It is full of trees and greens; It is the placenwhere great scholars were living, It is known as seat of learning; I t is the place where saffron is sown, It is the place where apples are grown; But I was helpless not to bring you up in your home land, As we were hounded out of our native land; You started crawling in foreign land, Alas, Your motherland is now your dream land! It is pious and divine land. | |
