The Warriors of Men(Rex Raman Rajkumar) [I wrote this piece of memo a few weeks back. Didn't know that it would have a great impact on some people so haven't shared it yet. But when a few people started asking me if it was taken from some book, I laughed, but then I realized it was the best ever compliment (for me) that i could have got. So here it is... ]


THE WARRIORS OF MEN

The Enigma of thy life will never be revealed...the tears that you'd have shed will not be gone astray. The victory that we nearly missed will take up a new shape...a Dome thence will be built, a life thence will be sown...an eye for an eye, swords for swords. Like the brave heart will we be fighting...blown along the gust of the autumn...but all with an expense...courage of your Men...If you swear that you won't give me a chance to raise my voice against you...if you swear that you'll do what you've been asked for...and all with your heart...a gritty expense will then be worth...I give you my word. A word of a man...that never will be averted...like the blades of the mighty sword crossing across the heart...I then will be bound with you and my words...a struggle that will we be passing...the Mountain of Alps that we will be conquering...walking over the tips of the enemies..serving my soul above the plate of the Nation...you'll have my companion...a companion that many have sought for...a companion that I offer you with dignity...a companion that will serve you...a companion that will take the orders...and the companion that you can ENTRUST your Life on...!!!
