International Day of Peace

Jay Sur, Kolkata

At a time when discord often reigns,
Let’s break those shackles and chains,
A global wish, our hearts unite,
For harmony to shine so bright…

Let’s cast aside our swords and hate,
Embrace the chance to educate,
In peace and love we find our way,
To brighter and kinder, better days…

Let prejudice and anger cease,
In unity we’ll find our peace,
For every soul, in every land,
Deserves the touch of peace’s hand…

Let bridges rise and walls grow thin,
And let the healing now begin,
For peace begins in you and me,
A peaceful gift to all humanity…

Let kindness be our guiding light,
As we stand together, day and night,
For peace is not just a distant dream,
It’s a reality, or so it may seem.

May love and peace forever bloom,
And banish darkness, chase the gloom,
On this International Day of Peace,
Let harmony and hope ever increase…
