No, please, I have a child with me <br />Don't shoot, I have a child with me. <br /> <br />I have nowhere to run <br />please stop them someone <br />there is no place to hide <br />please stop them someone. <br /> <br />Take my life spare my child <br />Take me as the prey of your bullet <br />I beg of you please spare my child. <br /> <br />God please save us from this rainfall of ammunition <br />I pray for your benediction <br />These demons have gotten wild <br />They will hurt my little child. <br /> <br />Oh my child, are you alright? <br />Speak up my baby, are you alright? <br /> <br />Your bullet has claimed my child’s life <br />Your insanity has claimed my child’s life. <br /> <br />Are you still hungry? <br />Are you thirsty for more? <br />If yes, then take my life too <br />for there is nothing left for me to live anymore. <br /> <br />My child has transcended to the highest <br />and you have descended to the lowest <br />God has witnessed your barbaric acts <br />Whole humanity will have to pay for your debts. <br /> <br />Nowhere will your soul find the place to hide <br />Nowhere your soul will find the way to run <br />God's wrath will surely fall upon you <br />His justice spares none. <br /> <br />My Mother India will get Her independence some day <br />She will be free from your clutches some day. <br />No innocent will be murdered again <br />no parent will cry in vain. <br /> <br />Rich and poor will be seen alike <br />My country will be free of strife <br />God will once again take birth from human's womb <br />There will be no bullet and there won't be any bomb. <br /> <br />Such will be its Civilization <br />Such will be my Free Nation <br />That is Her destination <br />Such will be my Free Nation! <br /> <br />Jai Hind! <br /> <br />(15.08.2011; New Delhi; India)<br /><br />Anshul Gupta<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/jallianwala-bagh-a-massacre/
