Eternal Flame

 

अब तक दिल-ए-ख़ुश’फ़हम को तुझ से हैं उम्मीदें                                                 

Till now my optimistic heart has kept your hopes alive

                        

 ये आख़िरी शम्में भी बुझाने के लिए आ ।  

Come to kill the last flame that my candle has preserved

 

रंजिश ही सही दिल ही दुखाने के लिए आ……    

Let it be enmity………….Come still to torment my heart

 

 

 

This is an eternal ghazal written by ahmed faraz and immortalized first in the voice of Runa Laila and then by the maestro himself – Mehendi Hasan.

 

 

Perhaps we love this soulful composition so much that it had been heard across the border from where it actually originated and got composed. And today this ghazal became source of their audacity to infiltrate in the heart of our nation and shoot us exactly where it hurts most.

 

Perhaps if they presume this ghazal to be the desperate & despairing voice of India, they are not completely wrong as the traitors sitting inside parliament house will ensure it to be heard & interpreted like that only.

 

My friend what happened was atrocious but it could be our blessing in disguise to save us from something more horrendous than this in future. This might be the awakening that was needed. And now when we are totally awake then let’s not sleep again, otherwise no sun will rise with us tomorrow.

 

This is the first time we the people – truly supported by media have raised our voice against the government, the politicians, the administration, and the security forces. And when only 1% of India raised their voice so many shameless stubborn head rolled, not by choice but by force. We forced it. We made those resignations happened. We made the guilty sitting in Pakistan afraid of us and of our anger for the first time. We made the Pakistani Govt & Media shaken & stirred.

 

Our govt, our ministers, our security bodies and our intelligence hasn’t done anything commendable so far even after  8 days of  post Mumbai attack but the fact is that we have put everyone to be on their toes and trust me no one is liking that. Specially our political leader getting agitated and rattled as we started asking questions to them, looking directly into their eyes with sparks of anger. This is something which never happened since our freedom as this was our biggest failure to deal with their anti-responsible attitude. Now whether its ruling or opposition party, anyone playing with the lives and sentiments of people will be kicked and rolled out. The message has been delivered precisely but the messenger needs to stay alive and in action other wise the entire link will fail and we will be back to worse.

 

Having said so, we know very well about the true colour of our enemies in parliaments, police force, administrative offices, intelligence beaurue and in neighbouring countries. Trust me every single traitor is just waiting for us and our spirited fire to die down, so that they can resume from where we have nailed them down.

 

Unfortunately they know about our colours very well……where we will again split up and get busy with our important & urgent issues and the nation can always wait.

 

There is a famous saying “Spare the rod, spoil the child.”

Don’t lose the rod to go out of our grip and hit hard when ever required. No nonsense and zero tolerance policy needs to be adopted religiously.

 

Let’s fight together and there will be no one in or outside dictating terms to us.

If we have spread religion, if we have spread technology, if we have spread population, if we have spread peace, and if we have spread AIDS too…..Then we have no reason not to spread this whether in my words or in your words…I repeat the meesage needs to be delivered whether in my words or your words… 

 

Bottom-line is we got to spread this like a house on fire and the message will be delivered with 1 eternal flame that represent one Indian and all Indians. An eternal flame which will shower light to those who wants to contemplate its beauty and an eternal flame that can put the entire jungle of hooligans on merciless fire, if messed with.

 

              Hope we can show our true colours in the light of this eternal flame.

Hum Chalte Hai Jab Aise To Dil Dushman Ke Hilte Hai.”
