The God of Small but Great Things
Jai jawan, Jai kishan
anthema he gave,
Just to honour people who work
and who are brave.
No armor of ego
no titles of pride,
Truth his anchor
Conscience his guide.
A man of the soil
simple and slight,
he walked along his words
with quiet but might strides.
The man a beautiful verse
of a life so grand,
The gentlest leader to fly
without undue and unnecessary sound.
Ruled not by power
but strength of his soul,
With spotless devotion
to feel us Indians complete and whole.
This is a Tribute to Lal Bahadur Shastriji one of our greatest son of the soil, penned by:
