Poem for the Children Hanged Brutally in Sialkot
Wednesday, August 25, 2010
Oh Kafirs of Fate
Oh the worshipers of the devil
You hanged our children brutally
Banged their bodies with stones and pebbles
Hanged them openly as if they were convicted and convoluted convicts!
See the pictures and imagine that being your loved ones
Imagine if this was your skin and texture being hung openly
Fathom that the world watches your children each day die on facebook.com and youtube.com
Look around us
Lawlessness
Judges cannot close crimes
Police are accomplices
People are mad
Our children have been hanged
In the presence of police, in the presence of crowds, in the presence of justice
May the rope that hanged innocence
Hang the children of our politicians, judges and police officers responsible for this crime
And let not history forget
If justice does not prevail
their souls will wander into our dreams
fulfilling us with the guilt and remorse
that we were silent
Oh the worshipers of the devil
You hanged our children brutally
Banged their bodies with stones and pebbles
Hanged them openly as if they were convicted and convoluted convicts!
See the pictures and imagine that being your loved ones
Imagine if this was your skin and texture being hung openly
Fathom that the world watches your children each day die on facebook.com and youtube.com
Look around us
Lawlessness
Judges cannot close crimes
Police are accomplices
People are mad
Our children have been hanged
In the presence of police, in the presence of crowds, in the presence of justice
May the rope that hanged innocence
Hang the children of our politicians, judges and police officers responsible for this crime
And let not history forget
If justice does not prevail
their souls will wander into our dreams
fulfilling us with the guilt and remorse
that we were silent
