Women for Soldiers
While they fight, the battles of their life,
their wives fights an even bigger battle
little angst, little pride
they pray for nothing
but safe return of their men
Some prays that they stay secure
and reach back their home
prisoners of war
leaves their widows behind
a history of love and compassion
but future devoid of even sunshine
These women make merry
that war is over now
still some fear
for their men' where-how?
She cheers him up
when he leaves for the frontiers
and fights back her on fears
she is no less than a warrior
let's cheer for the women
who marries a soldier
who raise her child to a Sepoy,
and nurtures a whole generation thereafter
The nation thrives
cause of two of it's honorable men
One, an Indian Farmer
Another, Indian Armed force-Men!
