The nation is not in danger, but the system of capital is. <br />In fact, the marauder in the garb of leader is in danger. <br /> <br />The person who is sitting to mourn the death of darkness <br />That mourner is in danger, that intellectual is in danger. <br /> <br />Those who are apprehensive, are only the rulers, <br />Neither your house, nor mine, is in danger. <br /> <br />The place where even Iqbal has become a victim of de-recognition <br />Jalib, are you complaining that your art is in danger? <br /> <br /> <br />(Translation from Urdu: Arjumand Ara)<br /><br />Habib Jalib<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-nation-is-not-in-danger/
