Fare thee well, Oh Bharatha Rathna


Fare thee  well, Oh Bharatha   Rathna

Tamil poem
By
Sankar  Dharmaraj

Translated by
P.R.Ramachander



WE   will  never  cry loudly  , please  wake up,
WE will never cry and call    you, please  run and come ,
You built  our India and said   to us good bye

You have summoned   the God of death  to untie your life  ,
And when you   have decided  to become seed again,
WE will not  hinder   the growth   of the tree

Oh  Bharatha   Rathna ,
Oh   real definition of culture

Let your hands  which gave us the golden quadrilateral ,
Bless us all    from heaven
Oh golden mind   which visualised Pokhran
Let your thoughts   open   as lotus flower

The  history of tolerance  ,
Oh Sanathana  Dharma (Beginning less  culture)
For some people  punishment of death  ,
But  it is boon to you
Your soul will sleep on the lap of Bharatha  Matha
Time will learn from you   pure and just politics,
Fare thee  well, Good bye,
Please   go with   happiness
