Flute



Let's tell our leaders
The nation is not moving
Let's tell our leaders
Yesterday promises are not fulfilled
Let's tell our leaders
They have lost focus
Let's tell our leaders
Every sector is at standstill
Let's tell our leaders
People are tired of lies and falsehood
Let's tell our leaders
They lack ability to lead
Let's tell our leaders
The nation is moving backyard
Let's tell our leaders
Comitiy of nations have turned our fatherland to a laughing stock
Let's tell our leaders
Shedding blood has become a common currency
Let's tell our leaders
This pilot can not take us to promised land.
