Oh, No

Neither had it occurred Nor I thought to explore But yes many times it crossed mind I had yet to find From an ordinary family Leaving merely on blessings from almighty I belonged to small town Almost cut off from world and remained unknown Yes, so much love for motherland And confided this to many friends Air and nature is my priority I must remain with continuity I lived in poverty but took it as blessings As there was strong resolve but nothing went as missing There was paucity of fund to study But opportunities too were ready Humble and honest as I used to claim But was never in position to blame I loved people with frankness As there used to be smile always on face “Hasmukh” * as my name stood “Smile on face” as it was understood I loved to be soldier and at the service of motherland From the childhood it was the clear trend What else after serving nation?
