Oh Pakistan!
Oh
Pakistan!
What
have they done to you?
The
powers that oppress through
drone
attacks and military precision
Let
it be known,
it was never our decision.
Oh
Pakistan!
Scars
are etched across your land
from
the mountainous North
to
the Southern arid sands.
You bleed.
Oh
Pakistan!
A
nation once so beautiful and so calm
Is
now fraught with trouble
Is
now ridden with harm.
Let
us confess,
Oh
Pakistan-
you
are a mess!
Oh
Pakistan!
A
necessity they say
A necessity that always ends
the same way
every
time,
history
bears witness
to
all these crimes
against humanity.
The
killing field,
stretches.
Will this pain ever be healed?
concealed-
the scores of dead.
concealed-
the scores of dead.
Earth's-
daughters
and sisters and mothers
Earth's-
sons
and brothers and fathers.
Is
one white life
worth
a thousand brown?
She
asked me one day,
with
a frown...
Oh Pakistan!
Oh Pakistan!
We
continue to fight
For
what is right
For justice, freedom, peace.
For
this enduring conflict to cease...
