That Country by debar

In a realm void of vision, the land unnamed, Where inspiration wanes, leaving hearts untamed, A nation's identity lost in the abyss, As corruption prevails, the very essence amiss.

Embezzlement thrives, a deplorable creed, While murmurs replace words, a dire need. For should we voice dissent, our blood, they seek, Drunk with power, the sword of tyranny wreaks.

In this realm, the press's freedom restrained, Irony runs rampant, truth bound and chained. The ink of truth stifled, its voice subdued, A nation adrift, integrity eschewed.

But amidst the shadows, a glimmer of hope, A vibrant tapestry, where dreams elope. For a country can rise, finding its way, Embracing a vision, leading the fray.

Let courage prevail, ignite inspiration's fire, Unite the spirits, aspirations higher. A nation reborn, shedding corruption's vice, A land of justice, where honor will suffice.

With voices resounding, in vibrant refrain, Crafting a future, devoid of disdain. A colorful tapestry, diverse and bright, A nation's true essence, shining with might.

No longer nameless, but a beacon of light, A nation reborn, embracing what's right. In unity and purpose, let us stand tall, For a country's true greatness lies in us all.
