Mortal fires may raze all her homes and golden paddy fields;
Yet to sleep on her ashes and dream immortality,
O India, I will be there!
God made the earth, and made confining countries
And their fancy-frozen boundaries.
Where Ganges, woods, Himalayan caves, and men dream God---
I am hallowed, my body touched that sod.
on the road to Kedarnath temple dedicated to Lord Shiva... Uttarakhand, India... one of the four most sacred temples in the Himalayas...
