I am someone who is afraid to get into a bus or a train these days.
I am someone whose wife thinks is going to war..
.. while I am actually going to my work.
She is afraid that I may not return.
She calls up every two hours. To find if I had my tea.
To find if I have lunched.
Actually she wants to find out whether I am still alive.
I am someone who sometimes gets stuck in the rain or in the blasts.
I am someone who suspects the person carrying a rosary.
I am also the one who is afraid to grow his beard and wear a cap.
If I buy a shop I am afraid to choose a name as..
.. someone might see the name and burn it during the riots.
No matter which two parties are fighting..
.. I am the first one to get killed.
You must have seen a crowd. Choose a person from it.
I am that person.
I am just the stupid common wanting to clean his house.
Do you want me to live my life and die every moment of it?
I just did not get the time to do it.
In the process of earning my daily bread this work got neglected.
But it’s better late than never.
last time they were killed in a train..
.. this time it will be somewhere else.
They will keep on killing until we learn to give a solid reply.
has nothing to do with my religion.
There is.
I told you, I am just a stupid common man.
Doesnt it sound so much more true!
