निर्धन हों धनवान, परिश्रम उनका धन हो। निर्बल हों बलवान, सत्यमय उनका मन हो॥ हों स्वाधीन गुलाम, हृदय में अपनापन हो। इसी आन पर कर्मवीर तेरा जीवन हो॥
तो, स्वागत सौ बार करूँ आदर से तेरा। आ, कर दे उद्धार, मिटे अंधेर-अंधेरा॥

Paired Painting
Portrait of Maharana Pratap
Maharana Pratap remains an enduring symbol of Rajput valor, independence, and unwavering resolve. As the ruler of Mewar, he famously refused to submit to the expanding Mughal Empire, choosing instead to live in the rugged Aravalli wilderness to preserve the dignity of his people. This portrait captures that indomitable spirit, depicting the king as a stoic warrior who stood firm against overwhelming odds. His presence in this painting is not just one of historical record, but of spiritual defiance, serving as a reminder of the sacrifices made in the pursuit of liberty. The landscape behind him reflects the harsh yet beautiful terrain of Rajasthan, which became both his sanctuary and his battlefield.
