Ahmad Shiddiqi - A True Story of Mumbai Mourning

(dedicated to people who curse terrorism everywhere) br br They shot suddenly br Everybody shocked br Ten places ruined br Everywhere weep deeply br br They attacked brutally br Everybody screamed br Tourist spots damaged br Everywhere wound totally br br So many people died br Why do they always kill? br Why should they force a will? br So many children cried br br So many visitors feel horrible br Why do they wildly hurt others? br Why they don’t feel sorry to others? br So many hearts sense terrible br br We sing Mozart’s Requiem for you br We sing Faure’s Requiem for you br We sing Verdi’s Requiem for you br We sing Bhagavadgita for you br br We perform Tchaikovsky’s Pathetique Symphony for you br We perform Beethoven’s Eroica Symphony for you br We perform Sibelius’ Second Symphony for you br We perform Tagore’s Geetanjali for you br br Are there still fighting between br King Rama and King Rahwana? br Are there still a massive battle br The Pandawa against The Kurawa? br br We together hope for your peaceful days br We together pray for your sincerest moments br We together stand by your side, friends br We together challenge at your side, friends br br Please, don’t let their darkest thoughts br Sink your warmest charms, O Mumbai! br Please, don’t let their blackest desires br Destroy your brightest shines, O Mumbai! br br They can’t bury your gorgeous files br They can’t crack your lovely nuances br They can’t steal your honest fragrances br They can’t cover your wonderful smiles br br (with deepest mourning for Mumbai’s victims)br br Ahmad Shiddiqibr br
