See the sky turn crimson red,
The same hue
With which your soil is covered.
Tell me, how are you going to explain this to mother
That the boy she cradled in her arms as a child,
Has now gone cold.
No more sneaking on his side
To get a scoop of his favorite ice-cream at midnight
And the plans she had for his 8th birthday party
Will never see the light of reality.
See the colors seep Out of her world,
The same way blood drained out of the boy's body.
Tell me what could you possible say to justify
The killing of innocence
To justify the replacement of laughter and joys
With ****** and blood
The heart that soared over with pride,
Is now weighing down with guilt
If only she had listened to his excuse, he made to stay out of school
She would not be holding him for the last time,
Fighting the tears that are too numb to come.
See the sky clear up again,
From the tears of the innocents,
You'll hope, plead and pray then forget
Till it gets ****** yet again.
But the mothers' heart will remember,
And one day they'll pay,
The heaven they had foreseen
Will be worse than any hell

A huge tragedy where children's died
You could see the sparkle in those children's eyes
The whole pakistan cried,
Its a shame for those talibans so called "pride".
I got nothing to hide,
Even I live abroad my heart mourned and cried......

Bullets were made music to their ears
Bad music is all I say
The loud,unrythmic music
That took 142 lives away
Those child were holding a pen
The other party were holding gun
They said "pen is powerful than gun"
There,the lives were gone
Inhumane,
Souless ,
Cruel ************ I would say
Oh ! What have they gave
And what they took away
They might not even have had a dream
That they will become something one day
Numbness everywhere
Background plays Floyd
' The child has grown
The dream is gone......
I have become comfortably numb'

The smallest coffins are the heaviest!
The smallest coffins are the heaviest!
No one wears stained clothes
No person likes stained walls
We make sure that they are cleaned
We make sure it is all stainless
But on a colourless Tuesday
Terrorists spilled red all over a school
They ransacked the classrooms
They set a teacher on fire
They shot aimlessly at tiny hearts and hands
They murdered their future
They banged bullets through budding brains
And all that was left were stains.
Terrorists stained crisply ironed uniforms
They spilled blood in corridors once filled with colourful paintings
They blemished the thoughts of little souls
They damaged the hearts of parents young and old.
Terrorists persist in staining their hands
They exult in staining their nation
They stain the meaning of Islam
They stain the words of Allah in the holy Quran
The redness of young blood will haunt them
These red pigments will soak them into hell
These blotches won’t be disregarded
These stains will sustain till eternity!
