K kinetic a jihad since very long
A aspires every man makes spirit bubble
S sincere is every step all moves strong
H honour is not sold army guns double
M myriad is the path and no miracles
I instants after instants they face pellets
R resilience’s armour reaches pinnacles
’S smartly and bravely they all face bullets
M mesmeric the valley keeps them going
Y yeoman’s fight for freedom unstoppable
L long yet undaunted struggle them seeking
O onerous task of movement unshakable
V valour they have to battle and carry
E energy they have to make Kashmir free.
