I Want Jinnah\'s Pakistan "I Want Jinnah's Pakistan", says Tariq Aqil

Why not? welcome, have it
have it the Jinnah's way -
if Jinnah's Paki are a minority,
partition it; give up frontier provinces to
the jihadis and Taliban who are now shafting you.
If jihadis and Taliban a minority
give them a part of it
they too need to preserve their culture
like Jinnah wanted Paki's in Pakistan

The people of the Islamic Republic,
know what is in your Quran
(ah, but it is in Arabic!)
does it not forbid you to be democratic?

So whither Pakistan?
to partition?
to doom and destruction?

Faiz Ahmad Faiz - A Blameworthy Sufi? Ay tu keh hast har dil-i mahzoon saraa-ye tu
Aavardeh-am saraa-ye digar az baraa

O you who resides in every sad heart
For you I have brought other inns too

Khwajeh beh takht bandah-i-tashveesh-i-mulk-o-maal
Bar khaak rashk-i khosraw-i-dawraan gadaa-ye tu

The rulers on thrones are but slaves to the world's worry and wealth
I am their envy, your friar on this detritus earth

Aanjaa qasida-khwaani-ye-lazzaat-i seem o zarr
Eenjaa faqt hadees-i nishaat-i laqaa-ye tu

There in pleasure they sing praises of silver and gold
Here is the tralatitious pleasure of your countenance

Aatish-fashaan zi qahr o malaamat zabaan-i shaykh
Az ashk-i-tarz-i-dard-i-ghareebaan radaa-ye tu

The sheikh spews out reproach, terror and fire
And you wear the sorrowful tears of the poor

Baayad keh zulmaan-i jehaan ra sadaa konad
Roozi ba-soo-ye adl o inaayat sadaa-ye tu!

I, the sinner of the world will surely cry out
On the day of justice and grace there will be only you

If The Dead Could Talk agar murday bol sakday

o ajnabia
zarra halkay halkay pairaan nal chal
eh koee saada jiha zameen da tukra nahin
mainu patta tera ithay chalna koee zulm nahin
par tainoo nahin patta teray pairaan haithaan ki dabiya


Step gently on this ground, stranger!
this ain't no ordinary patch of earth.
I know this trespassing isn't your fault,
how could you have suspected
and known earth's secrets.

The Explosion har roz main mar jaata hoon
har roz main paida ho jatta hoon

A Scene And that is the Pakistan Scene -
Dogs, bitches, murderers, dictators
from its inception till present times.

Does Islam know what's democracy?
Is Sharia law not the backbone of Islam?
Do mullahs, gundaas, kings, dictators

not rule all lands of Islam?
Why should it be any other way
in the Paak Land of Paakistan?

Six Minutes cHey minit

duniya badal rehi hai, tabhaaee ho rehi hai
paharon k moonh say aag nikal rehi hai
toofaan har ik innsaan ko Urayey jaa rahain hain
har jagah har waqat ye kyamat ho rehi hai

main ye sab dekh raha hoon
dictaor hamara khoon peenay main lagaa hua hai
greed aur power us k sar main bhari paRi hai
har taraf sunsunata sa hai khatary main logon ki jaanay hain
sirf pahar hi hamara rona sun kar ab kuch goonj rahay hain

main be bas hoon, mujhay gussay ki aag lagi huee hai
chay minit main main chup chap hokar bistray main so jaoonga
aur kal subah uth kar aisi shaeri karnay lag jaaonga -
duniya badal rehi hai, tabhaaee ho rehi hai...

The Nicotine Fingers meray pass
ab koee khass baat nahin hai
meri unglion say tabakku ki badbuu aati hai
mera sar say garam-garam chaey ki khusbuu aati hai

meri raat main kitabain bhari paRi hain
vo meray chup chup dost, meri sahaleean hain
kuch bolti nahin sunti nahin
sab goongi aur behri hain
main bhi unki tarah
ab goonga sa behra sa hoon

jo idhar udhar k khyaal aatay hain
matlab ya be-matlabi hotay hain
unki shaeri karta rehta hoon
log chahay kuch bhi kahain
mujhay shair ya pagla bhi kahain
angrezi main shaeri karta rehta hoon

sirf ye dikhlannay k liyay k main
Shakespeare say koee kam nahin hoon
har mulk ka koee Shakespeare hota hai
main Pakistan ka Shakespeare hoon
(Pakistan k peers ko shake karta hoon!)

apnay hi khawaabon main apna hi
ek kaidi bana huaan hoon
jab rang bharay sapnay mujhay aatay hain
baarish ki choti choti boondain
meray sar par barasnay lagiti hain
aur main ek dum chaarpaaee say uth kar
apni aankahain malna shurro kar deta hoon
aur angrezi ki shaeri likhnay baith jaata hoon

The Missing Pakistanis Pakistan ek khalis kaum hai

Pakistan ek khalis kaum hai
Pakistani khalis insaan hain
ek be-khalis hindu k potay
Iqbal nay iski bunyaad daali
aur mian Jinnah nay is main
khalis hakoomat laa daali

aur hamaray daddon nay kasmain khaaeen -
Pakistan Islaam k insaanon ki jaan hai
Pakistan islam par hamesha kurbaan hai
iska har ek bashinda musalman hai
har bashindo ko Islam par maan hai
is mulk main brabar sub musalman hain

lakin is paak hakoomat main
kitnay paaki kahaan gaaeb ho gayey
jungle ki patjahr main hawwa main kahaan ur gayey
kahaan giray vo kahaan bani kabrain unki
kyaa thaa unka ilzaam is k koee nishaan na hai
maan-baap bahoo-buchay unki yaad main rotay hain
dukh k dariya unki aankhon say nikaltay hain
unki kooe parwah nahin karta
kyon k ye kaum paak hai
aur is ka har insaan paak hai!
