was a Muslim in Christian society. They both were living honestly 
without any prejudice or hatred. But the flames of hatred burnt even 
against such innocent people. 

After the horrible event of September 11th, Taga was upset at the
war-like condition in the country. I thought he would be upset due to 
the temporarily closed theatre. One day I told him that it was a 
temporary break and soon his theatre would restart. He stopped sweeping 
for a while and said, " You have misunderstood me, sir; I am worried 
for my dear fatherland. May God save Pakistan from the flames of war; 
to hell with my songs, may my Pakistan live long!" Saying that he went 
out silently. These were the last words that I heard from him. 

The next day was Sunday and Taja went to church early in the morning to
pray for his fatherland. In the midst of prayer, some dark souls 
entered the church and fired on them. It took two or three minutes to 
spread death. Taja's prayer rose incomplete as with his songs, which 
were never listened to completely either. 

Tonight was the last evening of 2001 and I went to meet him in the
graveyard. I found his grave losing life. In that sad dusk of sunset, I 
thought how many graves yet would be filled with such bleeding souls, 
who knows? 

THE END.
