This Is The Place - My Inspiring Country India Poem by Bernedita Rosinha Pinto

Vibrancy of history,
conquerors and conquests,
revolts and victories.
To enhance mathematics
the number Zero invented by India
and shared with the world,
what would computers do
if zero was non existent?
To enhance good health
Yoga introduced to the world by India
forever to behold and meditate.
If not for our national hero Mahatma Gandhi
would 'peace without violence'
exemplify the minds of other leaders and nations?
In our country, reigns unity in the midst of diversity,
love in the midst of adversity,
what can anyone ask for more than peace
that prevails in abundance in all our homes
whether one is rich or poor,
whether one is unknown or popular.
Jai Bharat, Jai Bharat, Jai!
Long live India, long live India,
my inspiring country India!
