Rhyme Time
Hail India

Swishing dupattas and dancing girls

Tinkling bangles and silver pearls

Embroidered saris and syrupy sweets

India is the place where all these meet

Scented flowers and ever-flowing streams

Chapattis lapped with lots of cream

Kites, sparrows, peacocks and vultures

India has diversified cultures

Impressive nose-pins and embroidered shawls

Historical monuments stand tall

The deserts with their beautiful sand

Hail India — My beautiful land
