Allah Ke Bande [Song]

ALLAH KE BANDE
by Kailash Kher

Toota toota ek parinda aise toota, ki phir jud na paya
Broken, broken, one bird has broken such that it could not be put together again
Loota loota kisne usko aise loota, ki phir ud na paya
Stolen, stolen, who has stolen it such that it was not able to fly again.

Oh ohh oh, toota toota ek parinda aise toota, ki phir jud na paya
Oh ohh oh, broken, broken, one bird has broken such that it could not be put together again
Loota loota kisne usko aise loota, ki phir ud na paya
Stolen, stolen, who has stolen it such that it was not able to fly again.

Girta hua voh asman sey, akar gira zameen par
Falling from the sky, it came and fell on the ground
Khwabon mein phir bhi badal hi they voh kehta raha magar
In dreams, there were still clouds but he kept saying...

Ke Allah ke bande hansde, Allah ke bande, Allah ke bande hansde,
God's children, laugh, God's children, God's children laugh,
Jo bhi ho kal phir ayega
Whatever happens, tomorrow will come again.
Allah ke bande hansde, Allah ke bande, Allah ke bande hansde,
God's children, laugh, God's children, God's children laugh,
Jo bhi ho kal phir ayega.
Whatever happens, tomorrow will come again.

Kho ke aapne par hi to usne tha ud naa sikha
After losing its wings, it had learnt how to fly.
Kho ke aapne par hi to, oh oh oh...
After losing its wings, oh oh oh...
Kho ke aapne par hi to usne tha ud naa sikha
After losing its wings, it had learnt how to fly.
Gham ko aapne saath mein lele dard bhi tere kaam aayega
Take the sorrow with you. This pain will be of use to you.

Allah ke bande hansde, Allah ke bande, Allah ke bande hansde,
God's children, laugh, God's children, God's children laugh,
Jo bhi ho kal phir ayega
Whatever happens, tomorrow will come again.
Allah ke bande hansde, Allah ke bande, Allah ke bande hansde,
God's children, laugh, God's children, God's children laugh,
Jo bhi ho kal phir ayega
Whatever happens, tomorrow will come again.

Aa aa aaa... Tukde tuke ho gaya tha har sapna jab woh toota
Aa aa aaa... Every dream got shattered when he broke down.
Tukde tuke ho gaya tha, aa aaa aa...
It was shattered, aa aaa aa...
Tukde tuke ho gaya tha har sapna jab woh toota
Every dream got shattered when he broke down.
Bhikre tukdon mein Allah ki marzi ka manzar paayega.
On these scattered pieces, you will find God's wishes.

Allah ke bande hansde, Allah ke bande, Allah ke bande hansde,
God's children, laugh, God's children, God's children laugh,
Jo bhi ho kal phir ayega
Whatever happens, tomorrow will come again.
Allah ke bande hansde, Allah ke bande, Allah ke bande hansde,
God's children, laugh, God's children, God's children laugh,
Jo bhi ho kal phir ayega
Whatever happens, tomorrow will come again.

Toota toota ek parinda aise toota, ki phir jud na paya
Broken, broken, one bird has broken such that it could not be put together again
Loota loota kisne usko aise loota, ki phir ud na paya
Stolen, stolen, who has stolen it such that it was not able to fly again.
Girta hua voh asman sey, akar gira zameen par
Falling from the sky, it came and fell on the ground
Khwabon mein phir bhi badal hi they voh kehta raha magar
In dreams, there were still clouds but he kept saying...

Ke Allah ke bande hansde, Allah ke bande, Allah ke bande hansde,
God's children, laugh, God's children, God's children laugh,
Jo bhi ho kal phir ayega
Whatever happens, tomorrow will come again.
Allah ke bande hansde, Allah ke bande, Allah ke bande hansde,
God's children, laugh, God's children, God's children laugh,
Jo bhi ho kal phir ayega
Whatever happens, tomorrow will come again.
Allah ke bande hansde, allah ke bande, allah ke bande hansde,
God's children, laugh, God's children, God's children laugh,
Jo bhi ho kal phir ayega
Whatever happens, tomorrow will come again.
Allah ke bande hansde, Allah ke bande, Allah ke bande hansde,
God's children, laugh, God's children, God's children laugh,
Jo bhi ho kal phir ayega
Whatever happens, tomorrow will come again.

A Note From The Gull

Thank you, Kailash Kher, for this joyful song. Faith in the endurance and triumph of Good above all else is an endangered element in our world.

"Patria est communis omnium parens" - Our native land is the common parent of us all. Keep it beautiful, make it even more so.

Blessed is all of creation
Blessed be my beautiful people
Blessed be the day of our awakening
Blessed is my country
Blessed are her patient hills.

Mweh ka allay!

Sing Out, Shout Out [Song]

Uploaded by PepeCris15
SING OUT, SHOUT OUT
Performed by Kobo Town
Lead singer/songwriter Drew Gonsalves

40 years ago today
Independence came our way
Welcomed by our struggling songs
It came but would not stay, ey
And we, wanting to believe,
Let ourselves be deceived
By the well-groomed speech of ambitious men
Who time proved to be thieves
But the years went by and nothing changed
New flag, new name, same old game
Where the lucky laugh and the poor endure
Having lost the will to fight again.

Chorus:
Well I remember when we were young
And hope was strong
And we had waited long
To hear the midnight bell
That would dispel
The age that kept us down
I recall when we would bleed
‘cause we believed
Freedom was in reach
Of those who seized the day
But freedom came and faded like a dream.

Sing out, shout out, saw the new day dawning
But it faded like a dream in the morning
Sing out, shout out, saw the new day dawning
But it faded like a dream
Sing out, shout out, saw the new day dawning
But it faded like a dream in the morning
Sing out, shout out, I saw the new day dawning
But it faded like a dream.

Children of a passing age
Remnants of a dying rage
Whose anthems swept across this land
Proclaiming a new day, ey
And we waited patiently
For the elusive decree
That would rub away the scars we bore
And set our voices free
But the years wore on and nothing came
Tyrants just bore different names
While the official line promised brighter times
We knew all things remained the same.

Chorus:
I remember when we were young
And hope was strong
And we had waited long
To hear the midnight bell
That would dispel
The age that kept us down
I recall when we would bleed
‘cause we believed
Freedom was in reach
Of those who seized the day
But freedom came and faded like a dream.

Sing out, shout out, saw the new day dawning
But it faded like a dream in the morning
Sing out, shout out, saw the new day dawning
But it faded like a dream
Sing out, shout out, saw the new day dawning
But it faded like a dream in the morning
Sing out, shout out, I saw the new day dawning
But it faded like a dream.

Independence, what an elusive dream
Things are never ever what they seem
Marching hand in hand awaiting the command
Of the liberator, now the henchman
People’s vanguard, propaganda ministry
Freedom fighters filling the ranks of the secret police
While the tale of the times told in obituary lines
We offer our resistance with these humble rhymes.

Sing out, shout out, the dream never dies
A people united, nobody can brutalize
Sing out, shout out, the dream never dies
A mind on fire, no army can occupy
Sing out, shout out, the dream never dies, forward ever!
Sing out , shout out, the dream never dies, backward never!
