I'm...


I'm an eternal flame!
The flame which illumines some poor’s hovel
The flame which glows in the lamp of the shrine
The flame which brightens granny’s eyes seeing her son’s son
The flame which lightens the heart of a lover seeing 'her' smile!

I'm a flame of faith the believer keeps in his God
I'm a flame of love the mother has for her child
I'm a flame of audacity the warrior shows for his nation
I'm a flame of liberty the slave wants from his slavery

You can fade my blaze but cannot put me out
I will always burn inside you day in day out!
