War Within Paradise Poem by Abrar Ajaz Wani

Deserted streets in the moonlight,
And autumn knocking at every door.
Hue and cry for youth coming out,
And a wife breaking her bangles.
In every house and slum of city,
I see a dread fire lighted.
Anger destroying ever soul,
Every noble kind got vanished.
For torture by the oppression,
And I found no longer Kashmiriyat.
A war within paradise,
Turned streets to slaughter houses.

Curse be to one for ignorance!
My land got vanished for just.
Still longing for Light are the eyes.
The blood is bearing witness
Of courage and self-respect.
What more calamities can now come?
To heavens I pay repentance.
Ask for peace upon slayed.
They too were brethren and sons.
Alike me of a sister and a mother.
A war within paradise,
Alas! Perished are the people of paradise
