THE BATTLE OF REZANG-LA

They were awaiting return with eager eyes
and yes, the soldier came back - he did.
Silence turned into maddening cries,
kept his promise as farewell he bid.

Wrappped in flag, the trumpets were loud.
They laid his body on the courtyard bare.
The mood was pensive and yet so proud,
answered his call - not the family's prayer.

Not a bullet on his back - all on chest,
as our hundreds killed ten times more.
Fear riddled enemy, with him on the crest,
their war cry echoed with deafening roar.
