Prime Minister Narendra Modi unfurled the national flag at Red Fort today marking the 75th Independence Day of the country. While addressing the nation from the ramparts of Lal Quila, the Prime Minister made various important announcements and ended the speech on a positive note.
Giving a clarion call to the citizens of India, stressing on 'Sabka Prayas' for the country's development, PM ended his speech with this ode:
“Yahi samay hai, sahi samay hai,
Bhaarat ka anamol samay hai.
Kuch aisa nahi jo kar na sako,
Kuch aisa nahi jo pa na sako,
Tum uth jao, tum jut jao,
Saamarthya ko apane pahachaano,
Kartavya ko apane sab jaano,
Bhaarat ka ye anamol samay hai,
Yahi samay hai, sahi samay hai,
Bhaarat ka anamol samay hai.
Asankhya bhujaon ki shakti hai,
Har taraf desh ki bhakti hai,
Tum utho tiranga lahara do,
Bhaarat ke bhaagya ko phahara do"
A rough translation of PM Modi's poem is:
"This is the time, the right time
Precious time of India,
There's a power of innumerable arms,
There is patriotism everywhere,
Get up and wave the tricolour,
Hoist India's fate,
This is the time, the right time
Precious time of India,
There's nothing that you can't achieve,
Get up and start working,
Know your potential,
Know your duty to all,
This is the precious time of India,
It's time, right time”.
During his speech, Modi laid a roadmap for 25 years, when India will mark a century of freedom. He said that every individual citizen must realize his or her full potential for the nation to achieve its full potential. The Prime Minister said every person will have to join hands to fulfil the resolutions the country has taken.
