Rebirth

 

They screamed in rage as they sprinkled our cars with petrol to burn

They screamed in greed as they looted our shops at every turn

They screamed In anguish at her funeral, with the hearts of a nation torn

They did not even give their fellow men time to mourn

It is from the ashes of its own death that a phoenix is born

This phoenix is the new unity that Karachi doth possess

Thus we say to them clearly and with every right

We the people of Karachi will not fade away into the night

We will stand shoulder to shoulder and for ours we shall fight

For we have seen many a storm amongst sunshine bright

And we know full well the fallacy of their gloom and plight

Not anymore shall we let them rape us to their delight

We shall stand shoulder to shoulder and for ours we shall fight!
