Indus Valley

Deep into the dead ocean of  time,

Forging back from an era of war and crime,

Found are the beautiful footsteps,

Where a lost civilization was on its prime!

  

Developed on the banks of a pristine river,

Besides the shadow of Himalaya - the mountain emperor,

Here many facets of the past galore,

A zone of veracity of human splendor!

 

Gone are the glory of those historic tale,

So many ruled over it, so many fell,

Stood those rivers and mountains - a testimony of nature,

The borders are nothing but human mind's caricature!

 

History teaches those lessons yet and again,

Fighting over a piece of land for the glory - in vain,

Let the present sow the peace seed for future,

No more hatred, bloodshed, and no more human torture!

 

Civilizations prospered and lost out here,

So many historic accounts that humanity could bear,

Let Indus valley be the preacher of “that truth”,

Let friendship and brotherhood guide us henceforth!
