Where a sign can be written as "do not enter, or you will fall"
From one end I will climb, from the other you will
We will meet at the very top and look around with a sudden thrill.
On one side you will see small girls playing with boys
Where the utter innocence will be displayed when fights will be over toys
On the other side you will witness the tears of a father
Where he will give away his most precious creation, his own beautiful daughter
On one side you will see the busy streets of Lahore
Where people will walk the streets with the one that they adore.
On the other side you will see the busy streets of Amritsar,
Where the children get excited, as Diwali time gets closer.
Your faith may lie in the hands of Allah
My faith may lie in the hands of Brahma
You and I may stand in a crowd and look up at the sky
You and I share the same feeling when we feel we want to cry.
The border that stands between you and I
Resembles nothing but a clear-cut, fictionous lie.
The fact is you and I are humans of this race
Where when we both look in a mirror, we see the same face.
Pakistan, India, India, Pakistan
I may read the Gita, and you may read the Koran.
Peace between us is here to stay
Our children need to see far more than just this day.
