Awake Kashmir

Perplexed people of a politically polluted land,

Are uncertain of who they truly are.

Sons supporting freedom's fight, fathers seem lost,

Seeking meager gains with no gain in power.

Subjugation and forced order is in play,

Forgotten the episodes of cold blooded ******

Rapes, intimidation and tormented nights,

All ignored, for they are not

our daughters or mothers.

No concern given to our neighbors strife?

Our humanity we sold, for positions in this land.

Strengthened the corrupted power at play,

Full of anarchy and devoid of mercy.

The foibles in name of government and development,

Oh Lord!Fill our fellows hearts

with compassion.

Open their eyes to the inadequacies,

Bring our nation back to consciousness.
