By Taimur Rahman

September 5, 2010 -- I am the main performer in this song. Laal (Red) is a communist band. My name is Taimur Rahman and I am also the general secretary of the Communist Mazdoor Kisan Party (Communist Workers and Peasants Party). This song is not produced for a particular organisation but just to raise awareness about the issue.

The translation is in the discription section of the Youtube page . But here it is just in case you missed it.

My house with its earthen courtyard, my sanctuary

My lifeline of support, my home village

The shadows of my every memory, and every moment, are here.

My blood, my sweat, my death and life are all here.

(But now) Everything has drowned, Everything has drowned

If you were in my stead?

You'd have no option but to voice your pain.

If you were in my stead?

You'd have no option but to spread your hands to beg.

Everything has drowned, Everything has drowned.
