A beautiful kavita by Rashtra-Kavi Sri Maithili Sharan Gupt ji. In this he is talking about Hindu Identity. He mentions Islami onslaught, and wonders why we are still standing on our feet. He says it is because of our identity - our Hindu-ness (Hindupan in his words).

I can not dare to translate the above. Will leave that to Ashok-ji (with request).
Now, I think if he lived in todays world he would be a Hindu-fundamentalist/fascist/nazi etc., rather than being our national poet!
