Where Eagles Dare

Its not the power, neither the force,nor the guns nor swords,
neither weapons of any sort.

Courage lies in the heart,
when you just stand up
for what you feel is right
for the causes that you believe
against the worlds might.

Nor the king, nor the minister
not the general nor the priest
no one has prerogative or a
default claim on courage
it comes to the honest man
whose heart is the only place for it.

To stand up and fight
against all might
to live through the daily struggle
loss and win is just a bubble
Truth is with courage
and so is victory

For the tormentors are forgotten
And the tormented on cross
is worshipped till eternity

Courage is to standup
to fight for what you think is right
but somewhere in your mind
understand that whats wrong
may also have been right

To respect your enemy
even when they are hated by all
to bow and pray for them
is the crown of victory
Courage is shown not just during fight
but after your victory when you
salute your opponents might

The glorious and the icons
of humanity have one thing
all in common
lots of courage a proof of their ability.
