They went to school and never came back!!

Why? I could only ask why? And yes I know the answer to this why, because the loss of those innocent lives has hurt the most. I just cannot stop thinking about the mothers who would be waiting for their sons/ daughters to come back home, after cleaning up the house, so that they could make mess again. The mother who prepared yummiest food adding all her love and knowing that she will have to run behind or plead the kids to eat it. Or the mother, who has finally bought his kids favorite car after saving money the whole month. Or the tired father who after coming back from work takes kids out to the park . Or the father who goes to work even when he is sick so that he could earn enough to pay his children's fees.

My heart breaks when I think about the mother who wakes up everyday for her children. Who becomes happy because she saw her kid smiling, who is proud because her kid brought home an award, who is delighted because today her son/daughter rode a bike all by himself. The mother who gave up all her dreams, passions, goals for her children. The mother who gave all the bread to her little daughter saying that she is not hungry today. The father who gave his favorite chocolate to his son saying that he doesn’t like chocolate anymore. The parents whose life, wishes, happiness, emotions, everything revolves around their kids.

No one can never ever understand the extent of pain that mother is going through who just lost her child. We can empathize , change our display pictures, share our emotions but, can never repair what has been done. Nobody can . I don’t know who to blame, what to do, I can only pray to God to give sabr to the parents.  I don’t now how to condole the mother who had her last breakfast, gave her last kiss and said the last good bye to her son/daughter this morning.

Luka Chuppi bahut huyi saamne aa ja naa
Enough of hide and seek, come before me.
Kahan kahan dhoondha tujhe
I searched for you everywhere.
Thak gayi hai ab teri maa
Your mother is now tired.
Aaja saanjh hui mujhe teri fikar
Its evening and I'm worried about you
Dhundhla gayi dekh meri nazar aa ja na
Hazy is what my sight is, come to me

Kya bataoon maa kahan hoon main.
What do I tell you about the place where I am, mother?
Yahan udney ko mere khula aasmaan hai
There is freedom and independence like the vast sky here.
Tere kisson jaisa bhola salona
Like your stories, innocent and beautiful-
Jahan hain yahan sapno vala
-is a dreamland here.
Meri patang ho befikar udd rahi hai maa
My kite (I am) is flying without any worries maa.
Dor koi loote nahin beech se kaate na
Nobody to steal or cut my kite's string.

Teri raah takein aankhiyaan
My eyes are waiting for you
Jaane kaisa kaisa hoye jiyaa
My heart is going through various emotions.
Dhire dhire aangan uthre andhera, mera deep kahan
Slowly darkness in creeping in the courtyard, where is my lamp(son)
Dhalke suraj kare ishara chanda tu hai kahan
The sun is setting and gesturing to the moon, where are you?
Mere chanda tu hai kahan
Where are you my moon (son)?
