How many more of our own have to suffer and waste away
While we do nothing but watch then die day after day
Somewhere today, a Pashtun widow wipes tears from her eyes
watching helplessly as her sick child slowly dies
Somewhere today, a young Pashtun boy must beg on the street
to bring home food for his starving family to eat
We must not let the sacrifices of our martyrs be in vain
We must all do our part to end our people's pain
How we treat those less fortunate is the true measure
Of how much our people and values we treasure
Somewhere today, I hope my words inspire some good deed
For its actions and not sympathy that our people need

Young beggar boy with tears in his eyes :( afsoos!
