Independence Day Poems

Patriotic Poem on I love My Nation

With Himalayas in rth
Indian ocean in south
Arabian sea in west
Bay of Bengal in east.
I love my nation
With developed culture
And beautiful sculpture

To do ir work best.
I love my nation

y dress in latest fashion
y do many inventions
Which are about fiction.
I love my nation
With number of hill station
Which are God’s creation
It give us protection
And save us from tension.

Short Independence Day Poem for Kids

A frail, brown-skinned, bony human,
With sack on head, bent-back, he ran!
Indian was agonizing!
Tho’ people keep sermonizing!
Fifty years after Independence!
What good was done for common-man?

~ Dr John Celes

15th August Poetry on Independence Day

My sleep got disturbed, thrice that day;
I could t sleep tho’ a holiday;
My mind was filled with thoughts unclear;
I got up in morn, much earlier;
‘Twas India’s Independence Day!

Thunder, lightning filled night’s Sky;
day much overcast did fly;
Rain was just a drizzle that day;
Wetted ground of mud and clay;
‘Twas 15th of August, a rainy day.

pea-birds howled and groaned that night;
Rain made m shiver with fright;
Though ten, it looked like six in morn;
Sun behind clouds had gone;
Sky ground-glass remained that day.

leaky tap-waters that fell,
Raised wavelets, ploppy-toned and swell;
Rain-drops on cables looked like pearls;
Dropped, formed again, enticing souls;
It looked it would rain long that day.

Rain-drops hanging beneath fir-twigs;
Glittered in scarce light like figs;
whole tree was aglow, alit;
A thing of beauty, don’t miss it!
Sky looked like a barred-white board!

A frail, brown-skinned, bony human,
With sack on head, bent-back, he ran!
Indian was agonizing!
Tho’ people keep sermonizing!
Fifty years after Independence!
What good was done for common-man?

– by Dr John Celes

Short Poem on India

Our’s is a land of ss,
Kwn for bravery for s.

ne can with it compete,
Its culture ne can beat.

Whatever caste or religion,
All live here in unison.

With rivers, sweet fountains,
it’s a land of high mountains.

Its green forests are pretty,
And are source of prosperity.

Let’s for it work hard,
For its safety, be on guard.

Patriotic Poem on 15th August

Whenever children see
re’s a flag in hands wee.
Moving all in a row
pretty discipline do y show

Patriotic at heart
Move on y very fast
White, Saffran and green
A lot do colours mean
Be dynamic, tells wheel
For thy nation,
proud feel
May our flag fly aloft
For it’s valuable most.

~ Kulbhushan

Indian Independence Day Poetry 

Better than Heaven or Arcadia
I love e, O my India!
And thy love I shall give
To every bror nation that lives.
God made Earth;
Man made confining countries
And ir fancy-frozen boundaries.
But with unfound boundless love
I behold borderland of my India
Expanding into World.
Hail, mor of religions, lotus, scenic beauty,
And ss!
Thy wide doors are open,
Welcoming God’s true sons through all s.
Where Ganges, woods, Himalayan caves, and
Men dream God –
I am hallowed; my body touched that sod

~ Swami Yogananda, paramhansa

Beautiful Poem about India, My India

India, my India, where first human eyes awoke to heavenly light!
All Asia’s holy place of pilgrim, great Morland of might!
World-mor, first giver to humankind of philosophy and sacred lore,
Kwledge thou gav’st to man, God-love, works, art, religion’s opened door.
O even with all that grandeur dwarfed or turned to bitter loss and maim,
How shall we mourn who are thy children and can vaunt thy mighty name?
Before us still re floats ideal of those splendid days of gold;
A new world in our vision wakes, Love’s India we shall rise to mould.
India, my India, who dare call e a thing for pity’s grace today?
Mor of wisdom, worship, works, nurse of spirit’s inward ray!
