Dr APJ Abdul Kalam Poems about Our Minds are Stronger than Diamonds



In July 2014, Dr Kalam accepted a request from school –Jeevodaya Education Society, the college of special education in Nagpur.

The students were brimming with energy when Dr Kalam began addressing them. They listened with rapt attention as he spoke about how ‘Our Minds are Stronger than Diamonds’. He had two poems for the occasion, and he made the students recite one of them

When God is with us, who can be against.
We will win, win, win with our mighty will.
Our minds are stronger than diamonds.
We are all God’s children,
We will win,  win, win with our mighty will.
When  God is with us, who can be against.

The other one was reserved for the parents present. He asked them to recite, together with their children, every night before going to bed.

I am not alone,
God is always with me.
If God is for me,
Who can be against.
I sought the Lord, He heard me,
Delivered me from all fears.
Divine light penetrated into me
And cured my pain in body and soul.
Divine beauty enters into me,
And blossoms into happiness.
When God is for me,
Who can be against.
