All alone on the road,a little girl cried,
Right next to the place where her mother had died.
Her mother lay there in a pool of blood-
All that was left of terrorism's flood.

Chaos!Destruction!Misery prevailed!
As Fear its face slowly unveiled.
Here-there was fire,there-debris,
Innocents were trapped and none could flee.

A husband looked frantically for his beloved bride,
Fearing her to be lost in this evil tide.
A sister called out her dear brother's name,
But he too was won over in this cruel game!

A grandmother bemoaned the children she couldn't see,
'ah!poor child!you are gone before me!'
Friend lost friend,and soul lost soul,
The spirit was left,but,with a hole.

The work ofcourse,was done 'in the name of the Lord'
Or perhaps the nation-for that too is God.
And then ofcourse,their faith is strong and cause most just!
And that's enough reason to reduce all else to dust.

So what if innocent lives end?
So what if humanity's rules bend?
So what if blood is spilled?
So what if thousands are killed?

It is always 'THE CAUSE' that must never be forgotten!
So what if e'er a thousand ills are begotten?
For the sake of 'Faith',it must be done!
So what if Peace is replaced by the Gun?

But 'Men of God', you must now beware-
Your threats and actions now fail to scare!
Soon they'll know-you're just a Fraud!
Whether you be a countryman or from abroad.

When emotions rise high,Death scares us nought!
Rather pride rises for the Brave that have fought!
Rebellion,intolerance shows on our faces,
Serenity and Life gradually embraces.

And while the assassins are condemned to hell,
Must not a sound resonate in us as well?
Don't forget countrymen,the pain that we felt!
Nor that harsh blow with which we were dealt!

Never let it just a picture in the papers be,
Or atmost a cut-up for others to see-
Of how a little girl by her dead mother had cried,
And how all around her a pool of blood had dried.
