For the heroes
For the heroes
Through the liberation war
and the sacrifice of not fearing death
tigers who bore the burden of the earth
till the end!
In the ears of time
your voice
on the foreheads of ages
your holy name
In every flower
that the faces of tomorrow’s children will see
the fragrance of your life will be sweet
The warmth of your life
will surely be in the rays
that will write tomorrow’s light in Eelam
Tigers who have scorched the dust sheet of treachery
with the flame of life
Empty cyanide bottles
shoulder guns lying around
and young blood that has not yet dried
Above all
your life and death
as signs of liberation
will lie heavy in the lines of history
Blood witnesses
To the heroes
– Poet Ingulab
(Translation by Tamilpriya)
