hey @ fellow pakistanis. i’ve been in tears all day so here are some things that might soothe your heart a little bit (they’ve helped me)

• this poem (lab pe aati hai dua)
• this gahne (umeed-e-sahar)
• another poem (this is actually has been used as a lullaby in my family for generations) (can you tell i love iqbal)
• also i called george w bush shaytaan once when i was five 

if you’re not pakistani feel free to reblog for someone who is. stay safe. their footsteps will be heard in jannah.
