tum bilkul ham jaise nikale

tum bilkul hum jaisey nikley ab tak kahaN chhupe the bhai voh moorkhta, voh ghaamarpan jis mein hum ne sadi ganwai aakhir pahunchi dwaar tumhaarey arre badhai bohot badhai

preyt dharam ka naach rahaa hai qayam Hindu raaj karoge? saarey ultey kaaj karogay apna chaman daraaj karogey

tum bhee baithey karogey sochaa poori hai waisi tayyari kaun hai Hindu, kaun naheeN hai tum bhi karogay fatwe jaari

hoga kathin yahaN bhi jeena raatoN aa jayega paseena

jaisi taisi kata karegi yahan bhi sabki saans ghutegi kal dukh se socha karti thi soch ke bohot hansi aaj aee, tum bilkul hum jaise nikle

Hum do qaum nahin the bhai!

bhaar mein jaaye shiksha viksha

ab jaahilpan  ke  gun gaana.

aage gadha hai yeh mat dekho

wapas laao gaya zamana bhasht karo tum aajayega ulte paaon chalte jaana dhyaan na mann mein dooja aaye bas peeche hi nazar jamana

ek jaap saa kartey jao varam var yahi dohrao kitna veer mahaan tha Bharat kaisa alishaan tha bharat phir tum log pohonch jaogay bas parlok pohonch jaaogay hum toh hain pehle se wahan par tum bhi samay nikalte rehna ab jis nark mein jaao wahan se chitthi vitthi daalte rehna

Translation by Shabana Mir:

Turned out you were just like us.

So it turned out you were just like us! Where were you hiding all this time, buddy?

That stupidity, that ignorance we wallowed in for a century - look, it arrived at your shores too! Many congratulations to you!

Raising the flag of religion, I guess now you’ll be setting up Hindu Raj? You too will commence to muddle everything up You, too, will ravage your beautiful garden.

Yes, India has stupidly decided to embark on the same path of self-destruction. Our enemies should smile - we don’t need them to destroy us. We’ll destroy ourselves.

[…] Pakistanis won’t need to wait till 8 November to say, in Fahmida Riaz’s words: […]
