I am an insecure 'man'
Man coming from an insignificant 'land'
Land filled with falsely accused 'people'
People who you claim have
‘manipulated’, ‘manufactured’, ‘Pakistani identity’
Identity that has now our curse
Curse that we were born there as Muslims
Muslim, I believe that's where the problem lies
Lies that you have constructed stating that we are not you
You...
It has all just become about you
You, just you have the right to dream
Dreams have now become a privilege
Privilege that I don't have,
we, collectively don't have there as people
People from land I come just have will
Will that just needs a kick to be shattered
Shattered are our hopes
Hopes of not having our kids blinded
Blinded were thousands
Thousands more have been killed
Killed merciless by your army,
later their families by the words of your media
Media has made us your enemy
Enemy for us now is your army
Army
All I have for you is silence
.
.
.
.
Silence ....
All I have for you is silence
Silence
Just silence
And more silence
Till that silence reverberates in your head,
till your conscience cries out for mercy
Mercy that we have been denied
Denied has been the right to dignity
Dignity of those you raped in Kunan Poshpura
So dear army, let me get this straight
I have been sitting in that corner,
crying dead for long just like my martyred brother and sisters
Tufail
Andleeb
Nilofer
Zahid
And countless others whose name
Faces
And ages you would never know
But today, I won’t remain silent
I will rise,
I will rise,
I will rise
And I will fight
I will fight
With my fist up high
And a stone in my hand, aiming directly towards you
Which I am sure you will kill me for
And then label me as a Pakistan influenced jihadi
And the bunch of 8 year olds and 10 year olds you will kill alongside
you will be call them ”collateral damage"
Sometimes even worse "Pakistan's child soldiers"
But when we die,
We rest in our graves, all we will have for you again will be silence
And more silence
Just silence
Till that silence
The noise of it
Makes you cry out for mercy
Just like we have
