'Oh say, can you see',what lie ahead,
Standing under the pressure
Of undesired piles of crises
Are you perturbed or Afraid?
Oh America, what a great test
Now that you need to select,
whether you would chose to be hunchback
Bankrupt father of the opulent immigrants
Or, a solvent capitalist leader of the Nation,
To take care of the country with allround vision?
At the dawn of your young days
You famed as a 'nation of immigrants'!
But long back,you achieved to ride on
By your own; stood up as savior with valour;
As asylum that is too overburdened
To shelter now anymore!
Oh, Time summons you to pitch deeper
In the heart of the Nation
The star spangled banner
That waves with reminder:
Each bright star is the symbol
For each state that was rescued
At the cost of blood and lives of the ancestors,
Who sailed through the stormy ocean,
Crossed the desert and mountain,
Marched bruised,on prickly thorn,
To bestow peace and freedom to the Nation!
Oh Nation,
What treasure do you restore
For the ancestors as tribute?
Can you promise to retain
Their pride, power, prosperity and peace?
How much to expect
From this 'Humpdty Dumpty' diverse nation?
Are they willing to chant together
In chorus tune again
'God bless America!'
