Mumbai bomb blast Mahim Station 11 th July 2006



Freedom of expression is fine

You don’t draw caricature s

Of the Holy Prophet and

Disrespect the Divine

Or Cartoons

on the sands of Karbala

in blood by shimr and yazid

was way out of line

a single Hussain

they could not outshine



Freedom of expression is fine

If I respect yours

and you respect mine

I don’t call you a pig

You don’t call me a swine

Man is mortal

Humanity

the most holiest Shrine



Freedom of expression is fine

But not bombs on human souls

No part of any godly design

Man to man

Through religious venom

Don’t malign

And lets live in peace

terror decline



helping each other

our human credentials define

a new hope for

our unborn children assign

freedom of expression is fine

if love and peace together combine

what is yours is also mine

a single world

good thoughts

good actions entwine
