Son of The Soil
Amidst severe winter snow at the highest peak
He remained exposed for hours to severe cold
His body was but frozen so to vehemently speak
But he was son of the soil hence remained bold

After hours when his pain gone beyond all limits
He requested to his counterpart to shot him dead
He never bothered about his frenzy attacks of fits
But in love and affection he wanted the load shed

Bravo son of the soil you paid your debt to land
Love of God prevails to cover him in holy wings
He is now safe and sound in the lap of motherland
He has been taken over now by wonderful strings
