I Come From… My Home!

I am from India my land my home, I come back here no matter where else I’ve roamed...

I come from a land of a billion,

I come from a mystic place of saris, dhotis, bangles and foreheads with vermillion.

I come from a home of faith, belief and prayers,

When you look around, you see people of different layers.

I come from a land of dosas, chutney,

Idli, vadas and sambar,

I come from a place where there are bustling markets and bazaars.

I am from a family of strong women folk,

Never miss real stories from India's women.

Follow traditions and sing prayers to Gods we invoke.

I am from a land of untold history and grandeur,

Of Palaces, Maharajas, wealth and Princess’ allure.

I am from a land of mysticism, religion, culture and the Kama Sutra,

I am from the rivers Ganga, Yamuna and Brahmaputra.

I come from a place of many languages and states,

I come from lands of natural beauty many can appreciate.

I come from a land that had struggled and lost its riches and treasures,

I come from a land of the Kohinoor Diamond and many undiscovered treasures.

I am from a place of peace, Buddha and his teachings,

I am from a land of many priests, pilgrimages and The Holy Books’ Teachings.

I am from the land of mountains, valleys and beautiful sceneries,

I am from a land of many Gods, Goddesses and powerful energies.

I am from India my land my home,

I come back here no matter where else I’ve roamed.

I am from family and friends who are close and dear,

No matter the odds, I face my everyday with strength, not fear.
