HARI PAHLAWAN... we honour
Soldiers who protect our nation.
For their service as our warriors,
They deserve our admiration.

Some of them were drafted;
Some were volunteers;
For some it was just yesterday;
For some it's been many years;

In the jungle terrains or the desert,
On land, air or the sea,
They did whatever was assigned
To ensure commendable victory.

Some came back; some didn't.
They defended us everywhere.
Some saw combat; some rode a desk;
All of them did their share.

No matter what the duty,
For low pay and little glory,
These soldiers gave up normal lives,
For duties mundane and gory.

Let every veteran be honoured;
Don't let politics get in the way.
Without them, freedom would have died;
What they did, we can't repay.

We owe so much to them,
Who kept us safe from terror,
So when we see these special green uniform,
Let's be grateful and say "THANK YOU"

To all these heroes cum veterans

For their undying heroic acts and spirit

Allowing us to still stand tall

With all their love and care...
