They know
in a few days
they will go
a little water
the salla
swish of the knife
death without a blow
their destiny to
appease the soul
of sacrifice
they humbly
take a bow
death where
is thy sting
as it comes
serenely slow
the unstoppable
blood flow
like a poem spreading
its wings all aglow
children excited
running fearlessly
to and fro
the rich muslim man
will buy a dozen
maybe more
his neighbors
his envious relatives
he will show
begging outside
his palatial house
the burka clad women
her hungry children
although his generosity
is such a few coins
he will throw
rich muslims live
for today its the poor
muslim that has no
tomorrow
paisewalon ki idd hoti hai
paisewale musalman jai ho
