Wounded Strength
O Taliban don’t you see?
Recommended for you
This wounded land of a million generations
Its smoky sky of warriors’ fascinations
Sprouting generations have yet to see
Like their forefathers, they may also flee
Never ending is the tyrant’s dynasty
In the shame of your tyranny, lies your honesty
O Taliban don’t you see?
The broken wooden doors with hanging chains
And behind the mud walls, the singing hens
Blown away schools and broken chairs
A girl in her school uniform still dares
Blown away streets, the carving of your atrocity
Is ye glooming by the street vendors of this city
O Taliban don’t you see?
The harsh thousands march to his palace
Stoning, shouting, and shaming his palace
This roaring crowd spitting shame at you
No cowards among them, but the face of you
No fear they own, in fight for long gone peace
Even the mountains, stones, and soil cry for peace
O Taliban don’t you see?
Scattered shoes, and frozen tears of mothers
On the streets, broken organs of others
Dead souls lying in hundreds here
The old father is in search of his dear
We have been burying our beloveds for decades
Dead less memories live, but life fades
O Taliban don’t you see?
Your turban, beard, and guns are symbols of tyranny
Behind your turban, lies the face of tyranny
O cowards, when will you stop the game of killing?
No moment is left for their healing
Don’t you see breathless souls dipped in blood?
Your storm of war has brought deadly flood
O Taliban don’t you see?
My homeland is in breathing in danger
We need not you, you the stranger
Towns, villages, and cities are bleeding pain
A million tears, and blood of humanity drip in vain
The sin of their innocence is suffering from woes
Slaughtering them wide open, you the foes
O Taliban don’t you see?
God’s heaven is for pure blessed souls
The key around your neck won’t buy heaven for your sinful souls
God is peace, love, and comfort of humans
Kind, caring, beloved, and beautiful to humans
This land of mine will live beyond your atrocities
With wounded strength, they will seed peace of their cities!
