Stop Terorrism, Forget Racism
Something inside
Would be making you feel
About the lesions you want to hide
But those wounds would never heel
You would want to run
Even in the sweltering sun
To seek for some peace
But you won’t get a lease
You would break yourself down
No matter how much you frown
You would have to face this
You would feel like a drowning fish
You would run to kill all those
Who have turned cactus from rose
Who have carried those guns and arms…
Who have created all these harms…
You would run to take the vengeance
Because you are feeling the innocent’s absence
Who have been ruthlessly killed
And whose spaces can never be replenished
You would run to save the other millions
For if you fail, you would never exonerate yourself
You would offer your life out for them
And that’s how is your inner self
You would run to try
You would run to stop them
You would run to not let the tears dry
You would run for the blood,
You would run to stop the bloody flood.
You would run for you nation
Without having any ration
And that’s how you can stop
The evil deed of terrorism
It’s only when you will run
Without any Racism !
