Al Aman

Al -Aman

Main nahi janta meri manzil kahan 

zindagi hai kidhar roshni hai kahan

Watan hai mera ujra hoa bay-aman

na khabar kisi ko na hosh yahan 

Kahin bijli nahin hai  kahin gas band ,na ho sans band

bhook hai qehat hai lalay hain zindagi kay yahan 

Kahin ehtajaj hai kahin hartal aur kahin hangama e bekar

har shakhs ro raha hai aur day raha hai apni jaan

Aesi raat aaei thi na dekha tha aesa din

mout arzan hoi aur zindagi ho gae bay-aman

Dua hai meri ay Allah ! Al-aman Al-aman

mere pak watan ko rakhna tu sada shadman

Sidrah completed her Matriculation securing a First division from Garrison Academy, Quetta and her FSC from APS Westridge in Rawal Pindi. She simply adores photography grasping a great command over Picassa and is fascinated by world architecture. Sidrah aspires to become an architect one fine day.
