“An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.”

     -Mahatma Gandhi                                         

         The Invisible Boundaries

1947-the year to mark the birth of India and Pakistan as two separate nations

The walls painted with signs of hatred and pain in creation

The muffled rage from a long passage of time, the old oppression across the line

The border might be a fictitious demarcation; the faces in the mirror reflect the same aspirations

Division between the two homes, the heights unscalable

The fear in the valley remains, lonely eyes tearable

On one side Lies Lahore, the other side Punjab;

Here is Allah; the other side is Lord Rama;

Aman ki asha is what it calls for, change and unity to the core

As each step gathers a beat, the rolling colours of diversity ignite the heat

We want peace and tranquility....we have been a victim of blindness

The clock calls for a revolution with a sense of active participation and togetherness

Thus it will be one voice for a new tomorrow

Lines drawing a joined hand   praying for a beautiful dawn

The miracles will be performed; there would be erosion of deep sorrows

Brothers and sisters will unite...the history will pen down another historical song!!
