Raktim kishalay ami raktim kishalay is the 50th song of Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar's Prabhat Samgiita.[1][2] It is also known as the Seva Dal song or the flag song, because Seva Dal cadre sing this song in a call-response fashion before raising and lowering the Ananda Marga flag.

Raktim kishalay ámi raktim kishalay |
রক্তিম কিশলয় আমি রক্তিম কিশলয় |
I am a reddish tender leaf, |
Purport
This is how Sarkar himself described the meaning of the song—[3]
People should always remember that they are like kishalay, reddish tender leaves. You know, when leaves are very tender, they are reddish; and those reddish leaves are called kishalay in Sanskrit. When, after some time, those leaves become green, they are called patra. And when the leaves become old and yellowish, they are called parn’a. Now, here it is said, "I am kishalay. I am a reddish leaf. And I always move forward along a straight path, and not along any curved line. My thoughts are always clear and concise. And I keep my thoughts and sentiments above all impurities."
