A Leader Stands ( Rabi Lamichane)

Rabi, you stand with strength so clear,

While they weave lies, and sow the fear.

They’ve torn the land and sold its soul,

Made rivers run without a goal.

They drained the earth, the rivers dry,

Let hope slip beneath the sky.

But you, a spark, ignite anew,

To heal the land, and see it through.

They cast you as the one to blame,

But truth will shine beyond their shame.

For you,  My leader hold the light,

To lead us through this endless night.

The nation’s wealth, its soil, its streams,

They sold for gold, for broken dreams.

But empty lands can bloom again,

Through your hands and your people’s pain.

So stand tall, with heart of stone,

The fight is long, but not alone.

For we, the people, rise with you,

To build the dream, to make it true.

Stay strong, stay firm, though storms will come,

Your vision clear, their power undone.

For in your hands lies a brighter fate,

Rabi, you will make this country great.
