Tum Kitne Akhlaq Maroge
Har Ghar Se Akhlaq Niklega
They named him a meat exporter
He was only a cattle trader
His name was Pehlu Khan
They named him a cattle thief
A boy of 12, only helping his father
Taking cattle from one fair to another
His name was Inayatullah Khan
Lives lost to satisfy ignoble aims
A new wave of terrorism emerges
Vigilantes patrolling with power unbridled
Donning saffron, seeking salvation
One life taken to protect another
How else would you define a hate crime?
A society seeing you lesser than a bovine
Akhlaq, Inayatullah, Pehlu
Lives traded for mere political gains
Names changed, but fate remained the same.
