We shall not oblige: Hyderabads response
No we shall not oblige
to terror we shall not bow
not then in may nor now
No we shall not oblige
not to manufactured fear
yes our resolve is clear
No we shall not oblige
not by cowardice, we will not be divided
hindu and muslim, we shall stand united
No we shall not oblige
not give way to hatred and anger
not hate but brotherhood shall linger
No we shall not oblige
In the darkness whimpering we shall not lie
for never shall a hyderabadi truly ever die.
Dedicated to our brothers and sister who lost their lives on may 18th at mecca masjid and on august 25th in the twin blasts. And to hyderabadis everywhere whose sorrow for the fallen is as unconditional as is our fondness for the locations of the bombings. I am proud to call myself a hyderabadi in this our darkest hour and where every hyderabadi stands and states "we shall not oblige to feeble and cowardly attempts to tear us asunder."
Current Mood: Patriotic
