RESPONSIBILITY
A good citizen is one,
Who obeys the law,
Who takes delight,
In performing his civic duties.
In the olden days,
Sense of self-restraint,
And discipline was inculcated,
By combined effort of family and teacher.
The economic stresses,
Of present-day life,
Don't leave enough time,
For parents to look after children.
Work has its own dignity,
There is great satisfaction,
In doing one's job,
To the best of one's ability.
Whatever the duties,
We should always apply,
Ourselves for duties with,
Sincerity and devotion.
It is essential to remember,
The entire country is one,
Anyone who fosters separatism,
Is not our true friend.
A democratic country,
Is sustained not by,
The greatness of a few,
But by co-operation of many.
The future of the country,
Is in your hands,
Older generation did they work,
Now, it's new generation's turn.
Our position,
With regard to secularism,
Is known so well,
Hardly, it need any reiteration.
The country can progress,
Only if it does away completely,
With fissiparous tendencies,
Emerges as an integrated whole.
