My country India's flag has three colors,
Some have more,
Some have less.
The three stand for life,
Liberty,
and the pursuit of happiness.
The saffron stripes are for the ribbons of blood spilled fighting for our country,
and the undying fire in the spirit and souls of our citizens.
The white stripes stand for the purity of one nation, under God,
and the clean slate that all people have before the law of our creator.
The green symbolizes the rich, deep,
cloudless skies under which we all are free.
The 24 spokes navy blue wheel
represent the individual freedoms of each state and citizen,
and show that anything is possible,
that nothing is beyond our reach.
My country's flag is the ultimate symbol of freedom,
and hope,
and life for all people.
