73rd Anniversary of The Air Force. – By Noor Rahim
73 years ago did we see the seed of the Air Force being planted
And a few die-hards enthusiastically joined the pioneering band

To care & nurture the seed to sprout out of the ground
With back-breaking effort of sweat & toil, with pride laboured
They did nurture the seed with tender care & pride, as it bloomed
73 years have now very fruitfully passed, with expectations surpassed
For the Nation to see an excellent tree in bloom, matured & recognized
With the Nation fully confidence at the services & protection provided
A great future for the new founded that replaced the old
And much pride for the old-stagers who gave of their devoted best
Alas! Not many may remain to see what their dedicated works achieved
Forget them not, as they were the back-bone of what’s accomplished
God Bless the Pioneers and all those who served & are serving in the Sri Lanka Air Force today.
