Shehzad Roy’s Yes We Can Pakistan
The celebrity president of the world Barack Obama has won the world over with his now legendary ‘Yes We Can’. Unfortunately his acts do not match his stellar words and instead he is busy droning Pakistan and openly attacking a sovereign country.
Yet as a Pakistani hopeful of the rise of a new Pakistan I remain eternally optimistic that Pakistan too can have its ‘Yes We Can’ moment. In this regard our musicians have taken the lead be it Laal during the long march and lawyers movement and above all Shehzad Roy with his music.
Shehzad Roy has produced an excellent music album that seeks to create awareness amongst ordinary Pakistanis that our fate is in our hands. That the daily pastime of too many Pakistanis of blaming politicians, the US, saazishes and the like is all a waste of energy for the real levers of power remain the 160m Pakistanis who for too long have left their fates to others.
One song of the album ‘ Qismat Apney Hath Mein’ is shown below and says it all. It should be a wake up call to all Pakistanis to raise their voices, to form a genuine peoples movement that will aim to serve ordinary Pakistanis
Qismat Apney Haath Mein
Arise Pakistan and Shape your Destiny
