Dedicating my own couplets to u.
Hum milenge tumse hashr-e-inquilab k din,
ki jis daur me ufaq bhar jayega ulfat k sitaron se.
Aur theher jayenge ye dil ki dariya me jo umde hain tufan, jab chal padenge mai aur tum is dariya k kinaron pe. @alisethimusic wish 2 meet u sumday 3/3 pic.twitter.com/85faUmr11D
