ROZ EK SHER

कौन यहाँ छेड़े दैर-ओ-हरम के झगड़े
सिज्दे से हमें मतलब, काबा हो या बुतख़ाना
-असग़र गोण्डवी

kaun yahaan chhede dair-o-harem ke jhagde
sijde se hamay matlab, kaabaa ho yaa butkhaanaa
-Asghar Gondavi

Who would bother with instigating religious quarrels
When all we want is to offer prayers, irrespective of
Whether it is at a mosque or a temple
