Blessed to be born in this country of old root
Blessed to avail warmth and sun rays throughout
Blessed to be listening to the tunes of Vedic chants
Blessed to breathe the air of fragrance
Of flowers of myriad hues and scents
Blessed to be caressed by the cadence
Of cascading angelic music
Blessed to be a part of cult of tolerance.
Blessed with love and warmth at home and hearth
Blessed to share cheerful smiles of loving children
Blessed to share space with loving friends
Eager to partake in every joy and grievance
Blessed with a flair for culture and art
And love and concern filled in the heart
Never a dull moment in a country of diversities
May God bless with such a life to all!
HAPPY 2012 TO ALL
Rekha Mandagere
