"Never Again"

As we watched the summer rain falling
fast and furious as if someone was sobbing
we imagined the angels in heaven were crying
crying down their tears in the form of this summer rain
witnessing our Pashtun people's misery and pain

As we watched the news start unfolding
worse things every day they kept on showing
As we imagined how our own people are suffering
anger spread like fire throughout our entire community
and Pashtuns at long last started to call for unity

Now Pashtuns from all over are uniting
We finally have begun to see things clearly
From our long deep sleep we are quickly waking
That we will be free is a promise we intend to keep
As we all vow never again to go back to sleep
