I want to cut down on my words and say: peace is the shine of first daylight which precedes the glow of prosperity.

I am really thankful to you for providing the chance to the youth generation by launching such momentous festivals which give them the opportunity to reveal and display their talents through poems and pictures.

I do not actually have the ability to thank you in a way that you deserve. This occasion has really encouraged me to put more tenacious steps towards my peace goal for the world especially for my hometown Afghanistan.

Thanks NH”

 Hey people!  

Hey people I hope
Life doesn’t end from the earth

The blossoms of hope
Not to fade again

Hey people! Give a peace dove
To the fight monger

Give reconciliation and peace story
As a ransom instead of weapon

Hey people! Our grievances are these
War, smoke, weapon and mortar

The suicide, blast, youth’s death
Made everyone sorrowful

Hey people! Look at the children
What are their sins?

To be killed everyday
Were they warmonger’s partisan?

Hey people! You know that:
War means devastation

Peace means prosperity
Life with weapon is destruction

Hey people you better know that
War doesn’t end to unity

War causes destruction and dissension
There is not limited ways towards peace

Hey people! Why shall we burn
Our land and space with war

How long shall we sink in the blood ocean
How long shall we listen to the blasts

Hey people! The mothers cry
On the corpses of their sons

Look at their grief stricken features
How long shall they be tearing

Hey people! Believe in peace
Peace is the route to prosperity

Peace is our success bird
War is destruction and misery

Hey people! What is peace, peace?
Peace is unity and prosperity

Peace is our life our future
Peace is our religion our worship
