I am Glad

I am glad

I am glad

I am born in India

An ancient holy country

But modern in style and outlook

It is a sacred land

Of 'Rishis', ' Munnis' and 'Gurus'

And the tallest mountain 'Himalayas'

And the mighty River Indus.

It is a land replete with

Fantastic variety of Flora and Fauna

Of majestic 'Royal Bengal Tiger'

And the Jumbo Asian Elephant.

It has all types of climate - sun to snow

Many religions, speaking diverse tongues,

Celebrating different festivals

Projecting image of peaceful co-existence.

It is a land housing

One of the seven wonders of the world.

The 'Taj-Mahal' at Agra in U.P.

And the sexy 'Sun-Temple' at Konark.

It is the land of Rama and Krishna

Mahavira, Buddha, Ashoka, Chandragupta

GuruNanak and Chaitanya

Down to apostle Mahatma Gandhi

It is also the second largest producer

Of movies in the world

And so, called Bollywood, Like Hollywood in U.S.

Located in Mumbai - The Jewel Of India'.

And when 'death' lays its icy hand on me

And produces me before God

Is hall humbly request 'Narayana'

Make me born in India again,

In a good, rich and renowned family

With the same surname as BUTANI !
