Rebirth

Posted: Jan 4, 2008 Fri 12:52 pm     Views: 301    Interacts: 2

They screamed in rage as they sprinkled our cars with petrol to burn

They screamed in greed as they looted our shops at every turn

They screamed In anguish at her funeral, with the hearts of a nation torn

They did not even give their fellow men time to mourn

It is from the ashes of its own death that a phoenix is born

This phoenix is the new unity that Karachi doth possess

Thus we say to them clearly and with every right

We the people of Karachi will not fade away into the night

We will stand shoulder to shoulder and for ours we shall fight

For we have seen many a storm amongst sunshine bright

And we know full well the fallacy of their gloom and plight

Not anymore shall we let them rape us to their delight

We shall stand shoulder to shoulder and for ours we shall fight!

No, privacy is an unheard of commodity in Pakistan, or anywhere else for that matter, at least for famous people. BBZ did nothing out of ordinary. For heaven's sake, he is just a 19 year old kid having fun at a party and hanging out with girls his age, whats wrong with that????

As for sara 1983, bibi, the population of Pakistan at the last count is 170 million, not 2 million. It has progressed from being 7th most populous country to the 6th most populous one

Uff, this log is right after my own heart. I am sick of getting a million and one emails everyday about BBZ where he was 'just hanging out with girls'. Mind you, there has not one been one single picture where he had as much as a bottle of beer. Just go to any university in Pakistan and find out that all 19 year old boys would be hanging out with .... who else but girls.

Every 19 year old who can party have fun does it, and so should BBZ.


PS: sara 1983, bibi, at the last count, Pakistan's population stands at 170 million, not 2 million (even karachi's population is 20 million). If you see the world population report, Pakistan has MashaAllah progressed from being the 7th most populous country in the world to the 6th most populous. Predictions are, by 2050, we will leave Brazil far behind and get in the exalted top 5. wah wah, kisi index main tau humara naam ooncha aya
