Bara DushmanBanaPhirtaHai: Lyrics in URDU and English

A Musical Tribute to Commemorate the PESHAWAR SCHOOL MARTYRS.

Main aisiqoum se hoon jis kay woh bachon se darta hai … 

Bara dushman bana phirta hai jo bachon se larta hai

I am from a nation whose children frighten him… Some enemy he is, he who targets children.

Bara DushmanBanaPhirtaHai Jo Bachon Se LartaHai! was released as children began returning to schools across Pakistan weeks after the siege of Peshawar’s Army Public School.

This was a musical tribute released to commemorate the 131 children slain on 16 December 2014 in the horrific attack.

This song is actually written by an on duty Army officer Major Imran Raza, who had completed this song on the very same night of incident.

With a young child’s voice lending melody to the lyrics, the song which was released on Monday conveys a message from a slain child to extremists in response to the massacre. The message is one of conviction and resilience; that the children cannot be frightened anymore.

The main verse of the song is also packed with emotion:

Lyric with English Translation 

“Bara DushmanBanaPhirtaHai

Jo Bachon Se LartaHai”

1.      Bata kia puchta hai woh, kitabon mein miloon ga mein
What is he searching for, I live on in books

2.      Kiye maa se hain jo maine kiye , waadon mein miloon ga mein
I will be found in the promises I made to my mother

3.      Main aaney wala kal hoon , who mujhe kyun aaj marey ga,
I am the future, how can he slay me today?

4.      Ye uska vehem hoga kay who aisey khwaab marey ga,
He has to be delusional if he believes he can kill such dreams

5.      Tumhara khoon hoon na isliye acha lara hoon mein,
I am your blood, hence I’ve fought valiantly

6.      Bata aya hoon dushman ko kay us se to bara hoon mein
I have proven to the enemy that I am greater than him

7.      Main aisi qoum se hoon jiske who bachon se darta hai
I am from a nation whose children frighten him

8.      Bara dushman bana phirta hai jo bachon se larta hai
Some enemy he is, he who targets children

9.      To jab atey hue mujh ko galey tum ne lagaya tha
So when you hugged me as I departed

10.  AMANALLAH kaha mujh ko mera Beta bulaya tha
You did not call me Amanallah, my Son

11.  Khuda kay Aman ki raah mein kahan se agaya tha woh
How did he cross into God’s path of peace

12.  Jahan tum choomti then Maa wahan tak agaya tha woh
He came as far as the spot where you used to kiss me, mother

13.  Main aisi qoum se hoon jis ke who bachon se darta hai
I am from a nation whose children frighten him

14.  Bara dushman bana phirta hai jo bachon se larta hai
Some enemy he is, he who targets children

The attack on the school resulted in widespread condemnation from national and international quarters with the government quickly scrambling into action. A National Action Plan was then developed in order to tackle the growing problem; the premier lifted the moratorium on capital punishment.

Maa kaash mein aaj school na jaata,

Maa kaash mein aaj school na jaata,

Shayad tumhe phir se dekh pata

Teri awaz sunney ko kaan taras rahe hai,

Dekho na maa baarud k goly baras rahe hai

Saare baache apni maa ko pukar rahe hai,

Maa ye log hume kyu maar rahe hai

Tiffin me di tumari roti bhi nai khaai hai,

Maa aaj golio ne meri bhook mitaai hai

Papa se kehna ab mujhe school lene na aaye,

Dekh nahi paunga unhe mera taboot uthaaye

Mere jaane se apna hausla mat khona,

Maa mujhse bichhar kar tum mat rona

Mere khilone ,meri kitabe , mera basta,

Janta hu teri aankhe dekhti rahegi roz mera rasta

Bhaiyya se kehna uska sathi rooth gaya hai,

bachpan ka humara sath chhott gaya hai

Didi se kehna mere liye aansu na bahaye,

Roz meri tasveer ko chota sa phhol chadaye

Teri yaadon mein, khwabon mein, Reh Jaunga,

Maa mein ab laut k wapis nahi aaunga

Maa mein ab laut k wapis nahi aaunga

The Story Of The Only Survivor Of Class IX In The Peshawar Massacre.

Kunal Anand

December 18, 2014

   15-year-old Dawood Ibrahim is the Boy Who Lived, literally. After gunned down 132 school kids in The

 most gruesome massacre seen in recent times, only one boy survived.

      He is Dawood Ibrahim, and he owes his life to getting late for school. According to Pakistani newspaper Express Tribune, Dawood had attended a wedding on Monday evening. On Tuesday morning, he couldn't get up on time, and got late for school. The tardiness appears to have saved his life.

"    Dawood is lucky. He missed school today because we attended a wedding last night, and he overslept," Dawood's brother, Sufyan, told the newspaper. "It was fate."

The Army Public School and College has over 1,100 pupils. Dawood, a member of Pakistan's under-16 judo squad, was in the ninth grade. All his classmates had been killed in the gunfire, and a day after attending a marriage, he spent Tuesday afternoon attending the funerals of his friends.

"Dawood isn't talking to anyone, he isn't talking at all," his brother added. "He is into judo and is a tough child but he is showing no emotion at all right now. He just attended funerals the entire day. No one from his class survived. Every single one of them was killed."

     Never again. This picture is of the little boy whose mother rushed into the auditorium during the terrorist attack to save him and his siblings. Some lost their children. He lost his mother. You know what's so sad about losing your kid. You'd trade anything to see their messy room and unkempt bed with your child peacefully sleeping there. 

     Waking up everyday, preparing lunch, with that one place that will never be filled by your kid again. It's so painful. 

     Children who lose their parents are called orphans. But someone who loses their child--there's no name for that...
