President R. Venkataraman

```

President Ramaswami, President!

To you I bow, President Ramaswami Venkataraman.

Yours is the life that worships Truth

And disdains falsehood.

A fountain-art is in your eyes.

A fountain-art is in all your utterances.

Mother India's ecstasy-dance your heart is.

A freedom-wave within, without, you are.

Smashed asunder you have — ignorance-wall.
