The Imphal Music Project - Song For Bangladesh lyrics


ad
40 years we have been silent
While you laughed at the memories
Of our raped mothers and sisters
9 months of 1971
With your search lights
With your mad militias

With your collaborators
You lined up our teachers
Shot them dead

You smiled at the dead bodies
Kicked the lifeless students
Shot them again
You thought you had god by your side
The sword as your might against freedom

It's been 40 long years
Assasinations, midnight knocks,
You stopped our earned freedom
Erased our blackboards
Silence our debate..
Stopped the clocks
Then you built your empire..
Televised your thoughts
In the name of god
You stopped the clocked
Pushed back our freedom

Those who killed became kings
In the empire of collaborator
Hey 'Butcher of Mirpur'
It's been 40 long years
Now the cycle of time has turned
Now the young ones have learnt
Shahbag is the promise
From us to you
To end you fundamentalism

You smiled at the dead bodies
Kicked the lifeless students
Shot them again
You thought you had god by your side
The sword as your might against freedom

It's been 40 long years
Assasinations, midnight knocks,
You stopped our earned freedom
Erased our black board
Silence our debate..
Stopped the clocks
Then you built your empire..
Televised your thoughts
In the name of god
You stopped the clocked
Pushed back our freedom

This is a song for you Bangladesh
This is a song for you Bangladesh
This is a song for you Shahbag
This is a song for you Shahbag
