LTTE invites poets to compose Thamileelam national anthem
[TamilNet, October 27, 2005 15:40 GMT]
An invitation has been extended to "Tamil bards and minstrels with patriotic afflatus" to compose a Thamileelam national anthem. The invitation to the poets in the Northeast and among the Tamil diaspora came in an announcement by the Media Unit of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), from its base in Kilinochchi, Thursday. Poets are given time till November 27th, the Tamil Eelam Martyrs Remembrance Day, to give final touches to their composition.
Defining the characteristics of the proposed national anthem, the media unit of the LTTE has recommended 18 stanzas in "immaculate Tamil", to extol the "unique qualities of exclusiveness and resourcefulness of the Tamil Homeland and to manifest the resoluteness, dedication and the aspirations of the Tamil People for freedom and dignity."
The call for a national anthem comes in the wake of the Thamileelam National Flag and the National Flower already established.
The Tiger flag, leaving out the movements name in the flag, was designated as the Thamileelam National Flag by the Tigers fifteen years ago, on the Martyrs Rememberence Day in November 1990.
The flower, Gloriosa Lily, was designated as Thamileelam National flower by the LTTE administration during the Martyr rememberence week in November 2003.</b>
