tribute
It was my wish to write up some
tribute to his majesty the king but I seriously lacked words to express myself.
While going through the various encomiums posted in the page ´writers
association of Bhutan” I was mesmerized
by the quality and the expression they have applied to their writings. It was
really beautiful and articulate. Well on my part I am devoid of such skills and
my ability to express is handicapped. By
and large the it may remain an individual talent to be able to write up any
prose or tribute, but what is more important is the genuineness of the feeling we
are putting into the writings. i have also
written some lines in dedication to the anniversary , however I feel my words
are inadequate and lack any charm that normal writer are supposed to maintain. What
we as a citizen of Bhutan should remember is that everything his majesty did
for our nation is beyond any words of a writer. Very survival of nation is the sacrifice
and service that his majesty did for us. The birth anniversary itself was
divine blessing fulfilling the prophecy of sage terton drukdra dorji. With today
his majesty turns 60, and is moment for a reflection to the past. its time to
look back how our nation transgressed under the leadership of our king. Ruling
through thick and thin periods of the history, with undeterred love and passion
, his majesty sacrificed everything for the nation. Today Bhutan stands not
simply as country but a happiest nation in the world. His majesty adorned our nation
with all the elements to be appreciated by the whole world. Its under his sheer
leadership that aspects of culture, heritage and livelihood of people seen vibrant
changes that enticed the world wide. On the whole , our king will always remain
our hero and his deed for the nation
will be inscribed in the heart of all generation to come. Thus I have written a
simple poem for his majesty.
Six decades of love and kindness,
Reign of blessings and merriment.
Heaven played the song of
harmony,
Rejoiced and cherished his
endearment.
Here I salute to the king of
unparalleled destiny.
Bestowed with unmatched charisma,
At very young age was he enthroned.
Enthroned with mystical ravens
crown,
Enshrined with equality, justice and kindness.
Ruled his subject as children of
one family,
As father he protected and loved
as mother.
Here I salute to the king, the
parent of our nation.
Selfless service to the nation
and peoples welfare,
Framed with the holistic
philosophy of GNH
From roads, telephone to
television,
In health, education and
agriculture,
Tremendous developmental
activities he pioneered.
Here I salute to the king, the
architect of our nation.
Life and blood he sacrificed for
the nation,
Wearing an armour of patriot and
divine love.
Threats and enemies he vanquished
thus,
In glory and victory the flag of nation waved,
Praise to the king the patriot of
the nation.
Lots of love on this joyous
anniversary,
Tremendous happy returns of the
day.
Thank you and Kadrinche mewang cho,
You are greater than any words expressed.
