brought to Bharat’s culture grandeuer;
influence of France and Britain
enriched Bharat’s literature; Its’ certain

Bharat’s language of heritage, Sanskrit
spread over the Germany and outskirt
yes, communalism surely left its scars
But, in field’s culture, removed all bars

Jhansi Rani and Joan of Arc
in field of revolution left their mark.
Great Jalian Walabagh and memorable bastille

bring forth bi-continental cultural amity;
let us work eternally for parity
with undiminished frame work of hospitality.
