			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Born on September 27, 1907,</p>
<p>in a country descended straight from heaven,</p>
<p>horrifying times, bein&#8217; ruled by those who were craven</p>
<p>from the moment they came till they left us clean-shaven,</p>
<p>now, let&#8217;s get back to our Hero, born out-spoken,</p>
<p>grew up to be the man who allowed the rope to tighten,</p>
<p>yeah, tightened to his neck for the nation to get freed,</p>
<p>but em devil souls didn&#8217;t stop the killin&#8217;-spree,</p>
<p>case was the same when he was a child, thangz he shouldn&#8217;t have seen,</p>
<p>yeah, the enemy empire was on a killin&#8217;-spree,</p>
<p>as a child he adopted non-violence, Gandhi&#8217;s methodology,</p>
<p>but he gave it up in silence on seein&#8217; his people gettin killed mercilessly,</p>
<p>losin&#8217; their respect at the hands of the powerful enemy,</p>
<p>seein&#8217; the number of families decreasin&#8217; drastically,</p>
<p>he took to violence, was ready to face the enemy&#8217;s mighty military,</p>
<p>dreamed about settin&#8217; this nation free from that monarchy,</p>
<p>yeah, monarchy that reflected the perfect tyranny,</p>
<p>he raised the word I-N-Q-U-I-L-A-B,</p>
<p>formed H.S.R.A., rise of the revolution, finally,</p>
<p>love for his motherland got him into the penitentiary,</p>
<p>but for his fellow men, went to fast for a better jail facility,</p>
<p>the decision that he took wasn&#8217;t that easy,</p>
<p>cuz the number of dayz he went on was 63,</p>
<p>then came 1931&#8217;s March 23,</p>
<p>to take the entire nation to a state-of-melancholy,</p>
<p>he let the death rein over his body,</p>
<p>but the soul was alive listenin&#8217; to the nation&#8217;s elegy,</p>
<p>yeah, still alive for reincarnation, still searchin&#8217; for a body.</p>
