Muzaffarnagar, khaito mai behte lahu par.

Yahaan behti thi hawaayein ganne ki mithaas lekar,
Rishta ek bana lete thai har ladki ko gaanv ki behan kehkar;
Sab chacha o taau hote thai muslmaan o hindu,
Huye jatan laakh, nehar gang ka na bataa paani kintu.

Phir kya hua ye, ki hathiyar khait mai nlehlahane lage,
Apni hi behno izzat lootne ko, ye jhund aane lage;
Apne hi chacha ko mara, apne taau ko qatl kiya,
Nehar gang ke paani ko lahu se tumne kyu rang diya?


GLOSSARY:
Hawaayein: Breeze
Ganne: Sugarcane, crop for which muzaffarnagar is famous
Chacha: Uncle, mostly muslim use this word in the region
Taau: Uncle, more related to hindu way of calling
Nehar Gang: Ganga canal, runs through the region & lifeline of agriculture there
Izzat: Honour
Qatl: Killed
Lahu: Blood

    1. Only words seem nice, but ask the people who have gone through all this. No words, nothing can be nice for them.
