I cannot but fail to note and be heartened that both sides (or as
many) find inspiration in Faiz Ahmed Faiz and Muhammad Iqbal -
Kshemendra quoting Niya Shivaalaa, Cashmeeri quoting Meray Dil Meray
Musafir and Rashneek going back to Baang e Dara.
Besides the Kashmeer connection it is not an unimportant note that
they both received a similar religious education while growing up in
Sialkot - however apparently contradictory that sounds.
I will let Iqbal Bano sound it - Faiz's Hum Dekhenge. it becoming an
anthem during the zia years.
