In the rugged hills of Saragarhi, they stood,
A band of heroes, courageous and good.
Soldiers of valor, in a distant land,
Defending their post, a noble last stand.
Twenty-one strong, hearts filled with pride,
On that fateful day, they couldn't hide.
From the enemy's horde, waves after wave,
They stood undeterred, brave and grave.
Sikh warriors, their turbans held high,
Facing a relentless foe, they would not shy.
Bullets rained down like a monsoon storm,
But these brave souls stood firm, in uniform.
With rifles in hand and faith in their hearts,
They fought for their homeland, played their parts.
Against overwhelming odds, they stood tall,
In the face of death, they gave their all.
Saragarhi, a battle for the ages, we recall,
Where heroes rose, they gave their all.
Their sacrifice echoes through history's page,
A symbol of courage and unwavering courage.
In the annals of valor, their story lives on,
For the Twenty-one, who were forever gone.
Saragarhi's glory, a beacon so bright,
Guiding us through the darkest of night.
We honor their memory, their sacrifice so grand,
In the heart of every woman and every man.
For the heroes of Saragarhi, we stand in awe,
Saluting their bravery, forevermore.
