salute

with small hands 
he scribbled an order
extinguishing hope
of disenfranchised

i salute you
who took to streets
against #muslimban

with small hands

on a white paper
with small hands 
he scribbled an order
extinguishing hope
of weary thousands
with red eyes
              leaden feet

but i salute
the thousands
who took to streets
against his #muslimban

umreeki a'lum: the emperor with no clothes

dunya tamam ko
ik zehni mareez
banata hay pagal
jaanta nahiN woh
khood berhana hay

shabab per aaj
                  aao
ik ikaee ho jaiN

timeless

are we there yet
are we there yet
the chorus unending
and, finally when we're there we know not that we're there
View conversation
Are we their yet? Are we there yet? Are we they're yet?
