WE WANT JUSTICE

Lyrics :-

If only she lived in a better world
a better place
Far away from this wretched world we are a part of
Things would have turned out different

If only

19 ki thi wo
In a different universe
Jab TV ko kara on
Nirbhaya didn’t occur
Everything was quite normal
she focused on her studies
& raste raat ke safe
na eve-teasing ka darr
thi Doctor banne ki khwaish
toh NEET ko kara clear
MBBS 5 saal
Post Grad (Neet PG) ko then appear,
admission ache ek college mein
Parents ko karna proud tha
Surakshit thi ye duniya
Public Transport pe na doubt tha

Jahaan rishvat lete police nahi
& aur leaders, they ain’t corrupted
Jis dharti pe puje Durga ko
Hota mahisaasuron ka vadh bhi wahi

Woh samaj na victim ko hi blame
aur aparadhiyon ko mile bail nahi
Mane jis Bharat ko apni mata hum
Apmaan uske betiyon par, sehte nahi

Kadi mehnat aur merit ke bal pe RG Kar
bani PG student trainee doctor, sincere thi boht
cus jaane bachana
that’s what she meant to do
working endlessly & sometimes sleeplessly too
31 only a long life ahead
sapne phd ke
gotta do something for mum & dad
Devoted physician, apni thi duty pe
Her friends, used to like her
work ethic & appreciate

Aur aisi ek shift mein
August 8 ki raat
36 hours
Ki duty aur kadi daud bhaag
Usne jo kara ek call,
bataya ko ma apni,
‘Ma tumi kheye shuey poro
Ami thik achi’

She ordered food, at 1AM
With her colleagues
Celebrating the news
of silver by NC (Neeraj Chopra)
Jab hua time, for her friends
& for her to leave
and that’s when a thought stopped her,
from the room that she was entering

She had a feeling
use ghar ko waapis jana chahiye
Its better to sleep at home,
that she was super tired
Straight to the arms of her mother
hectic friday
so she went home
3AM 9 AUGUST ki morning

Kaash ye hota toh ab bhi hoti woh zinda
Kaash, ye hota toh hoti na uski hatya
Kaash na khote, ek aur promising beti ko
Now the damage is done ‘cus we fed our daughters to
predators

Kaash jo chalta haspatalon mein koi racket na
Kaash hamare principals, bhi hote imandaar
Kaash ye politics, insaaf ka na qaatil banta
Azaad Hoke Na Azaad kaun zimmedaar?

Kaash, na koi ma baap ko aisi dukh mile
Kaash, hamari police bhi hoti vigilant
Kaash, na rehti woh haivaniyat ki duniya mein
Kanyashree divas? Jab kanyaon ki hoti hatya hai?

Kaash, hamare countrymen we had a conscience
Kaash, no patriarchy, no societal ills
Kaash hoti hamari reed ki haddi, to speak
Hote na apne desh mein rape,
har ek 16 min

Kaash na hota scaw division ki zaroorat kabhi
Kaash no cover ups, murder ain’t a suicide
Kaash, ‘harassing’ was never this effing normal
Ram ki janmabhumi par never a Sita could survive

Kaash na kisi ka file, court ke chakkar khaye
Kaash na pita, beti ki chita khud jalaye
Kaash aur kaash se ranga laal tiranga apna
Draupadi ke sau chillane pe isiliye na govind aye

[epriyer]

Let our voices echo unceasingly
‘cus the fight has just begun

Rattle’em outta their cushioned seats
‘cus the fight has just begun

be unfettered & unsilenced
‘cus the fight has just begun

The fight is far from over
‘cus the fight has just begun

[TooMuchNXiety]

1:40 ( for non-bengalis ) It means
"maa, aap khana khaake so jaiye
main theek hoon" 😢

[AbhijitRout-xzkb]

WE FAILED TO SAVE OUR SISTER. I HOPE YOU ARE IN A GOOD PLACE. THANK YOU EPR FOR RAISING YOUR VOICE.
#WEWANTJUSTICE

[pratyaya]

Through the demands, EPR indirectly claimed the resign of CM Mamata Banarjee. Justice will never be achieved until the corrupted government is kicked out. Just look at Bangladesh how the students and civil people literally destroyed a corrupted political party from the throne though the party made them independent.

2:02 So she went home
Kaash 🥺🥺
Literally got shivered on that moment💔💔
