PARTITION
-
Shiv Shankar (India)
The Pilage of motherland from the newly born sons;
Abduction of daughters in front of relations,
The slaughtering of mankind on the name of
division;
Yes, I am nothing but the partition.
Furious mob is on the peak of destruction;
Treacherous bloodshed for the transitory
limitation,
Thee, must suffer from identity loss and
separation;
Yes, I am nothing but the partition.
Everyone suffers from the inner fire;
Corpses are waiting for the funeral pyre,
Homelessness and hopelessness lead to
migration;
Yes, I am nothing but the partition.
Fear, Chaos and Sorrow lead to isolation;
Epidemics, hunger, trauma, nightmares and
inflation,
Now, only these are in your fate despite
excess exertion;
Yes, I am nothing but the partition.
So, what is the need of this useless range?
If it makes you, your’s own strange;
Live festively together not with agitation,
Oh dear! There is nothing in partition.
Yes dear! There is nothing in partition.
