Kashmir

 Kashmir:

Amidst the mountains and the lakes so serene,

Lies a land of wonder, a place of dream,

A paradise on earth, with beauty untold,

The land of Kashmir, a sight to behold.

With its lush green valleys and saffron fields,

And the snow-clad peaks that the sunlight yields,

The air so crisp, the sky so blue,

Kashmir is a place that will steal your view.

Through its meandering rivers and its sparkling streams,

And the chirping of birds in the morning beams,

Kashmir is a place that will capture your heart,

With its magical charm, like a piece of art.

But beneath the beauty, there's a story to be told,

Of a people so brave, of a struggle so old,

For Kashmir is a land of conflict and pain,

Of a people fighting for their rights in vain.

Yet, amidst the turmoil, there's a hope that shines,

Of a brighter future, of peaceful times,

For Kashmir is a place that deserves to be free,

To be cherished and loved, for eternity.

So let us pray for peace, for love, and for light,

And let us stand with the people in their fight,

For Kashmir is a land of beauty and grace,

A place of wonder, a sacred space
