Hum Dekhain Gay

By Faiz Ahmed Faiz
Translated by Ayesha Kaljuvee

Sung by Iqbal Bano

Hum Dekhain Gay
We shall see
Lazim Hai ke hum Bhi Dekhain Gay
It is necessary that we shall also see
Woh Din ke Jis ka Wadah Hai
That day which has been promised
Jo Loh-e-Azl pe Likha hai
Which is written with God's ink
Hum Dekhain Gay
We shall see

Jab Zulm-o-Sitam ke Koh-e-garaan
When the mountains of cruelty and torture
Ruii ki Tarah Urd Jain Gay
Will fly like pieces of cotton
Hum Mehkumoon ke Paun Talay
Under the feet of the governed
Yeh Dharti Dhard Dhard Dhardkay gi
This earth will quake
Aur Ehl-e-Hukum ke Sar Uper
And over the head of the ruler
Jab Bijli kard Kard Kardke gi
When lightening will thunder
Hum Dekhain Gay
We shall see

Jab Arz-e-Khuda ke kabay se
When from God's Mecca
Sab but Uthwaaiy Jain gay
All the idols will be shattered
Hum Ehl-e-Safa Mardood-e-Haram
Us people standing in the mosque
Masnad pe Bithaaiy jain gay
Will be elevated to a higher platform
Sab Taaj Uchalay jain gay
All the crowns will be tossed
Sab Takht Giraaiy Jain gay
All the thrones will be toppled

Bas Naam rahay Ga Allah ka
Then only God's name will remain
Jo Ghayab Bhi hai Hazir Bhi
Who is both absent and present
Jo nazir bhi hai manzar bhi
Who is both the observer and the view itself
Uthay ga Analhaq ka Naara
When the anthem of truth will be raised
Jo Main bhi Hun aur Tumbhi ho
Who I am and you are as well
Aur Raaj karay gi khalq-e-Khuda
And the people of God will reign
Jo main bhi hun aur tum bhi ho
Who I am and you are as well

Hum Dekhain Gay
We shall see
Lazim Hai ke hum Bhi Dekhain Gay
It is necessary that we shall also see
Hum Dekhain Gay
We shall see

My dog died recently. She was a King Sheppard. Her name was Kayla. I was quite devastated so my eldest sister invited me over to her place in Texas to visit and spend some time with her and her dogs. Both my sister and my brother in law were very warm and generous to me as always. Below is a photo diary of my visit.

I took a vacation to Texas to visit my sister and my brother in law. The people of San Antonia are really friendly and the scenery is beautiful.

Here is a pic of Pica yawning. She was a stray. As near as we can tell she is a Golden Sheppard.

Here's Minnie and Daisy. They are Chihuahuas.

Here's Pica following me. She's my favorite. I love big dogs.

This poor guy got run over by a car. He survived. He liked me because I always gave him the drugs. I was so worried he was in pain that I kept him high as a kite. He's recovering quite nicely.

We took a ferry to go to the beach. I'm told this bird is called an albatross

This pigeon approached me on the deck

And then it looked at me as if to say "'eh buddy, where's the grub?"

This beach was secluded and the water was warm. Unfortunately, the water was polluted with oil and people neglected to pick up after themselves. Plastic garbage lined the beach from one end to the other. How can anyone do that to such a beautiful place?

The next beach was perfectly clean. Notice the houses were on stilts in case of a hurricane. A powerful hurricane hit shortly after we left the beach destroying many of the houses.

We took the ferry back and we were followed by birds and dolphins. I guess the birds were after food. I think the dolphins were just watching us.

I think a lot of people get the wrong idea of what I mean when I say that I'm an atheist. I don't see that as a superior moral or ethical position. How can I when the vast majority of our victims are religious (Muslim and Catholic). How can I when its people like Rachel Corrie who risked her life to help our victims because she believes in God.
I personally don't believe that this world would be better off if people weren't religious. I do believe that this world would be better off if we questioned greed and kept our ego in check.
