Organized by "Youth for Peace" NCBL

Third

"Youths Against Landmines"
"Bomb"

I hear what I have heard not before,
water pot has also turned put to be a bomb now.
Apparently, doll is a bomb and rocket is a bomb too.
Also banner is a bomb and socket is a bomb.

Wherever the letter lies about,
There one hears the explosion of pressure cooker bomb.
A sweet splits with splintering clash.
The petrol bomb is the bus set the travelers on flame. 
Progress is so much ahead that bucket blows as a bomb.
After a time will the lantern be the bomb. 
When shall there be peace spread in Nepal
All the utensils shall be soon the bomb sells. 

Bombs after bombs blossom and blossom
Houses and offices in flames fly and in ashes fall,
Hard is for us to hurl out the red blooded revolution.
Hard is for the nation to sustain the shells of the bomb

Plant no more the bombs at the cost of tears. 
cover no more the landmines at crossroads. 
sling once and once more the song of peace. 
By bumping down the dreadful war, 
This very song will pave the path of peace and prosperity.
