They came to be martyrs on the basis of creed
When the faith claims violence on innocence is not a good deed
They spread blood everywhere
Hope was not kindled from anywhere
Life came to a standstill
Empty spaces of lost lives no one could fill
Then came a nation’s pride
The uniformed could never let it subside
There was a shine in their eyes
In their heart were a nation’s cries
We’ll not let you down
Was their promise to the mother’s crown
Our body may sleep forever
But we’ll not let terror take us ever
They went in and conquered
And the terror in our hearts jittered
A uniformed fought terror with his bare hands
But never let it free to hurt more clans
He gave his life in this deed
I salute them for the service to our creed
There was an end to bullets and violence
But a start to a people’s renaissance and political nonsense
Promises were made to never let the white collared rest
As streets became the place to show our unrest
The media and its hoopla captured the hype
Never letting an opportunity stay unripe
They raised stories and showed the ashes
Aiding terror in their news flashes
Now the time just keeps clicking over
More stories are there for the media to cover
Life has hastily assumed its old ways
As a clan, we are again enjoying on beaches and bays
The politicians have found their way out
Reselecting the responsible with all the clout
A man had claimed it was a small thing
Is again occupying the same office’s wing
We tend to forget it all
And our heroes always tend to fall
Remembrances last for few days
And we are back to our beaches and bays
Nothing that can be done though
We just keep saying it and divisions will grow
Make a vow to stay united
Never let our nation be divided
