I am not familiar with the Ghalib version. But here is how the present-day version SHOULD have read:

“Etch Pee ke dil pe choat lugee
Aurat ne dhuk-ke maar diye

Chal baar jara – kuchh pee-te hain
Ye ghum shayad kuchh thunda ho

Bouncer boalaa – hut bhaag abhie
Pichhle saa-re bill baakee hain

Jub laat lagee peechhe kuss ke
Etch Pee boala – dhutt tere kee

Aa bail mujhe too maar jara
Yeh jeena bhee koi jeena hai

Mak-khee munh pur aa baith gayee
Phir tutt-ee baaro-baar karee

Boatal puk-ree phir haathon mein
Jai-se buss wo hee aurat ho

Pee Pee ke tukre hazar hue
Koi yahan gira koi wahan gira!”

Neti,

Iss dil kay tukray hazar hoi
Koi yehan gira, koi wahan gira!

Koi yehan gira, koi wahan gira!


I don`t know it was by Ghalib...I think it was an Indian movie song...appropriate! what do you say?

Re: # 69

Mohar
I have no sympathy for trained killers and believers in the strategic depth syndrome, or even purveyors of the limited war. If anything my views would be more draconian than yours. Collateral damage I understand. But bombs, against civilians and the score keeping, no.

`Nuff said. Have to rush.

I don’t know why people are upset. It is an Indian problem; a little more action here and there and then we are talking…summer is around the corner…let the fun begin!

Koi yehan gira, koi wahan gira!

Yup...Prophet tahmed, in all his self-righteous glory, chose to ignore that convenient fact..

doesn`t matter to me anyway...the way i see it, the only paki who doesn`t support terrorism is a dead paki...

Re: # 65 sw
[...It`s just ordinary folks , whatever their political leanings or religious persuasions, who get killed ...]

Well - when your ``political leanings or religious persuasions`` takes you to support jihad - then you should expect the inevitable, even if you are a ``just ordinary`` folk....

The suicide bombings in Karachi and elsewhere didn`t come out of the blue - the ideology behind these crimes has been planted and nurtured by paki people - the army, the elite and even the ``just ordinary folks`` - over last 20 years, to kill hinuds kafirs, get kashmir and what not.... now that it has come to bite them, we as victims of that campaign are just pointing out that obvious fact..... that may look like gloating to them - but then what they expect us to do?.... cry over their problem which they brought it upon themselves?....

I know where you are coming from - but this is one situation where you should not let ``good intentions`` run the wrong side of the issue.... paki need to go thru this pain, only then things have chance to change their murderous ideology.... otherwise, kafirs like us would keep dying for a long time to come.....

``your paki brothers were gloating after the varanasi bombing..they were saying it`s part of the paki strategy to carry jihadi into India.. ``

that was HP`s strategy to fan communal strife in india. and according to him, it is paks ``right`` to do so.

Re: # 62 cm32

``open-air liar``?... that`s the best you can come up with? :))).... Anyway - I don`t know why you are so against the name ``Closet Mullah``..... it`s a good name and it fits your personality.... No?

of course, Pakistanis dont gloat over such things,


Prophet tahmed(peace be unto your self-righteous rear): your paki brothers were gloating after the varanasi bombing..they were saying it`s part of the paki strategy to carry jihadi into India..

Re: # 58

Salim that thought had crossed my mind (identity swapping), it seemed too good to be true.

I don`t spend much time on UP anyway.


Tahmed
My mail was sent off in righteous indignation, but at my age I have to sit down frequently and cool it. -) I find laughing at anybody`s misfortune an abomination. I am not happy with what happened in Karachi either. It`s just ordinary folks , whatever their political leanings or religious persuasions, who get killed .

Hopefully things will not get worse.

Re: # 62

tahmed:

you should step down from the high horse of ``morality`` that you are riding on.

there will always be people who are antagonist to each other, on both sides of the border.

you are conspicously absent when during the mudfest, indians are at the receiving end and start teaching ``humanity`` when the reverse happens.

eg. when indians were ridiculed as ``code-collies`` by eminient pakis such as behram you weren`t seen around but when some indians replied in kind by calling pakis ``cab-drivers`` you came out, guns blazing, calling hinuds castiest.
