"To Much To Expect?"

Pashtuns are Afghans and to this country we gave our name
Is it too much for us to ask that we all be treated the same ?

Why in our Afghan government is Dari language preferred?
For us Pashto is the sweetest language we have ever heard

In positions of power why are Pashtuns numbers so very few?
That we are in the majority in Afghanistan doesn't seem true

Why must we be made to feel like strangers in our own land?
This is something Pashtuns will never be able to understand

You get upset when we ask only to be treated with respect
In a country named after us is this really too much to expect ?


* This is for those non-Pashtuns who complain if we speak up against the injustices against us. They get mad if we write about Pashtun unity instead of Afghan unity but yet they discriminate against us.
