He said, we follow - Kalam sir.

“A dream is not that you see in sleep.

It is something that doesn’t let you sleep”.

Wordings like these made us to weep

Undoubtedly, this thought is inculcated deep.

“Unless India stands up to the world,

No one will respect us.

In this world, fear has no place”.

Sir, India WILL grow, not soon, but in a slow pace.

“Let us sacrifice today

So that, our children can have a better tomorrow”.

Hope the thoughts you spewed will not sway

Youth would definitely make your dreams glow.

Great dreams of great dreamers are always transcended.

Sad, that in India, dreamers are not being funded

Having no support extended,

Halfway through their dreams are ended.

“You were born with wings.

Don’t crawl, learn to use them and fly”.

Everyone are born with tongue which stings

Irony, even the filthy slanderers had to cry.

“Excellence is a continuous process and not an accident”.

That is why you are our favorite president.

To all the politicians who live in affluence

You proved that humility is the only way to excellence.

“Suffering is the essence of success”.

You have changed incorrigible youths roaming aimless

Reverence towards you is abundant and excess

All that you need to do from above is to bless.

You might have been an ordinary scientist

But a convivial humanist

An energetic and determined optimist

A true altruist.

Now that you are dead and gone

Sorrows and grief are all deep down

Seeds will reap which you had sown

Saw the reverence? The world did mourn

Success will not be received at ease

Admiration on you will never decrease

With heavy hearts and pouring tears

We all love you sir, rest in peace.
