"Stand Up For Kashmir!"  by Steve B.I.K.O. (featuring San'aa Sultan) - produced by DaGuttaman540


(San'aa Sultan recites her poem, "I Am Kashmir"...)
 
(Chorus)
"Injustice anywhere threatens justice everywhere
No matter far or near when those screams ain't hard to hear
Solidarity soldiers will make it known loud and clear
Yo, it's way past time, come on - Stand Up For Kashmir!
         
Bollywood like Hollywood concealing what we know is true/
Can't deny that genocide that's happening right in front of you -
Half-a-million Indian troops in Jammu/
Occupied Kashmir - suppress the youth, what they do -
This ain't no holy war between a Muslim crew and Hindu/
No, this is about independence until we're finished with you!
New Delhi's the new Tel Aviv/Kashmir is Palestine/
Erase that 'Line Of Control'/Truth be told, it's way past time!

(San'aa Sultan recites her poem, "I Am Kashmir"...)

(Chorus)
Injustice anywhere threatens justice everywhere
No matter far or near when those screams ain't hard to hear
Solidarity soldiers will make it known loud and clear
Yo, it's way past time, come on - Stand Up For Kashmir!

'Stone Wars of the Fourth World' - we don't pay attention/
To the rape of Kashmiri women with kids sitting in prison -
India perpetrates a program of ethnic cleansing/
Over 65 years that Kashmir's been the victim -
Steal their water and their daughters - dissidents disappear/
Never to be found again - we're shedding blood, sweat and tears -
For Kashmiri martyrs; yeah, all those sons and fathers/
Who give their life for Azadi - that's Freedom - death before dishonor -
Holla claiming 'democracy' is a lie and hypocrisy/
100,000 dead in Kashmir makes a mockery -
Of that land that brought you Gandhi, plus the Buddha, fought the British/
Who'd a knew that now there's nuclear weapons plus a death sentence -
On a subcontinent, for violating a Valley?
This is the real size of it - but still those bodies get tallied -
And so New Delhi's the new Tel Aviv/Kashmir is Palestine/
Erase that 'Line Of Control'/Truth be told, it's way past time!

(Chorus)
Injustice anywhere threatens justice everywhere
No matter far or near when those screams ain't hard to hear
Solidarity soldiers will make it known loud and clear
Yo, it's way past time, come on - Stand Up For Kashmir!"

Stand Up For Kashmir! - By Steve B.I.K.O. featuring San'aa Sultan

Tomorrow her tears will fall,
And like the living who lay amongst dead,
She will not flow,
Maybe her silence will shroud bodies,
And conserve breaths of the living,
between waves,
In hope that there is life,
Amongst the dead,
She cradles against her bosom.

Tomorrow you will ache,
Wondering why crimson tears,
Fall upon the tresses of dear ones,
Mourning the way history,
Marked synonymy between,
Our rivers and our martyrs.

Tomorrow looking into your beloved’s eyes,
You will question,
How the memory became permanence,
Reflected in waters so deep,
That your heart is riddled with lakes,
Mourners on each bank,
So you can taste,
The massacre still resting  on your mothers lips.
 
Tomorrow she will wear,
The attire of the mourning,
And the shroud of the mourned.
She will be the whisper of the buried,
Between the breaths of our memory,
The voice of the bullet piercing chest,
And the silence that never came. 
She will be the death count,
On the lips of the living,
The syllables caught between tears,
The corpse in our meadow,
The saffron beneath jackboots.
Because she is the Jhelum,
And she still carries the weight of our dead.

She Is The Jhelum

Valley of the Brave

Today downtown Srinagar was rife with poisonous gasses and a woman from Safa Kadal died due to the effect it has on her chest. My heart keeps breaking for Kashmir.
