15+ Independence Day 2025 Poems To Celebrate August 15
1. Our Flag Flies High
The tricolour sways in the morning light,
A symbol of courage, of dreams in sight,
Threads of history woven with care,
Stories of heroes in the cool air,
Every hue tells a tale so true,
Of a nation proud and strong through.
2. Voices of Freedom
Once we whispered, now we cheer,
Gone are the days of doubt and fear,
Bound by love for our land so wide,
Hand in hand, we march with pride,
Our voices echo from hills to sea,
Forever in unity, we shall be.
3. The Brave Hearts
They faced the fire, they bore the pain,
So freedom’s sun would brightly reign,
Their footsteps carved the road we tread,
With every tear and word they said,
We honour them on this bright day,
In freedom’s light, we’ll always stay.
4. India, My Mother
O motherland of mountains and streams,
You cradle our hopes, you hold our dreams,
Through changing skies and endless years,
You’ve heard our laughter, felt our tears,
Today we vow to keep you free,
In every heart, you’ll always be.
5. The Dawn of August 15
The sun rose with a golden flame,
To mark the day our freedom came,
The chains were broken, the songs took flight,
The stars shone brighter that sacred night,
Now every year we proudly say,
Our tryst with destiny guides the way.
6. Fields of Hope
In green fields, the farmers toil,
Their sweat enriches our nation’s soil,
The harvest feeds both young and old,
A gift more precious than any gold,
On this day we thank their might,
For keeping our nation’s heart alight.
7. Children of Freedom
We are the children of a dream once sown,
By hands that built, by seeds once grown,
We dance beneath the saffron sky,
We promise to lift our country high,
In peace and love, our roots will grow,
For India’s future, bright aglow.
8. The Martyrs’ Song
They rest beneath the silent earth,
But their sacrifice gave us birth,
To freedom’s light, to a nation’s name,
To honour, glory, eternal flame,
We sing their song, both loud and clear,
For their spirit is always near.
9. Unity in Colours
Saffron of courage, white so pure,
Green of growth that shall endure,
Together they form a flag so grand,
The pride of every heart and hand,
On this day we stand as one,
Under the same bright Indian sun.
10. The Soldier’s Oath
Through sleepless nights, through storm and fire,
They guard the land they most admire,
From snowy peaks to ocean’s deep,
Their watch is one they’ll always keep,
Today we thank them, brave and true,
For all the sacrifices they do.
11. Rivers of Freedom
From the Ganga’s flow to the Yamuna’s bend,
Our rivers sing, our fields they tend,
They carry stories of ancient days,
Of battles fought in freedom’s praise,
They whisper hope in every stream,
Of India’s everlasting dream.
12. The Heart of India
In every smile, in every street,
In markets where strangers meet,
In temple bells and mosque’s sweet call,
The heart of India beats for all,
On this day, we clearly see,
Our strength is in our unity.
13. The Freedom Flame
It burns in hearts, it lights the way,
Through darkest night to brightest day,
It’s passed from age to age with care,
A torch of hope beyond compare,
On August 15, we fan its glow,
And vow to never let it go.
14. Dreams of Tomorrow
Our past was hard, our fight was long,
Yet we emerged both proud and strong,
Now we must shape the years ahead,
With hands that build, with love well-spread,
So every child may truly say,
Freedom is ours, in every way.
15. My India Forever
Through rain and shine, through peace and strife,
You are the rhythm of my life,
From Himalayan peaks to ocean blue,
My every breath belongs to you,
On this day and all the years through,
India, my heart beats true for you.
