Father of India, Bapu, Mahatma,
Your legacy shines bright, near and far
You led the nation to freedom,
With non-violence, your guiding star.

Your teachings of truth, love, and peace,
Echo through the ages, never to cease
You showed us the way to live in harmony,
With all of creation, effortlessly.

From the humble ashram of Sabarmati,
Your message of hope spread far and wide
You inspired millions to stand up for their rights,
And to fight for justice with all their might.

Your Dandi March was a beacon of light,
A symbol of courage and steadfast might.
You showed the world that change is possible,
When people unite, and their voices are audible.

Bapu, your legacy is a testament to the power of non-violence,
And to the importance of living a life of truth and benevolence.

In the hearts of Indians, you forever reside,
As the Father of the Nation, with pride.
