Poem on BIBI

"Chain of Federation"
On 21st June 1953 Nusrat Bhutto was honoured with a great birthAt Karachi in Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto’s home Benazir came on this earth
Lady Jennings Nursery School at the beginning she attendedHer studies in Convent of Jesus and Mary in Karachi were commended
After spending two years at the Rawalpindi Presentation ConventTo the Jesus and Mary Convent at Murree she was sent
Benazir passed O-level examination at the age of fifteenAlso tried her best to obtain lot of other qualities in between
In April 1969, to the United States, Benazir Bhutto was broughtAt Harvard University’s Radcliffe College admission she got
Until June 1973 Benazir in Havard University remainedFrom where a degree in political science she obtained
Benazir was much interested in getting high education after allSo immediately joined Oxford University in the 1973 Fall
Was elected based on potential and with grace of God AlmightyTo the Standing Committee of the prestigious Oxford Union Debating Society
In the year 1976 more qualifications were added to her biographyBenazir graduated with distinction in Economics, Politics, and Philosophy
In order to do one year post-graduate course and to more learnOnce again to Oxford in autumn of 1976 Benazir did return
In January 1977 not imposed by anyone nor by any group selectedWith overwhelming majority as President of Oxford Union was elected.
In June 1977 Benazir Bhutto finally to Pakistan cameMartial law was imposed after politicians’ childish game
She liked foreign service and formally wanted to joinBut Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto said for her politics would be fine
Benazir Bhutto assisted her father as an able advisorWas lucky to have such a great leader as her supervisor
People of Pakistan for decades by Benazir Bhutto were mesmerizedHow popular she was, upon her death the world was surprised
She was a great woman with charisma, intellect and beautyWho served the country very sincerely with a real sense of duty
Her qualities to rallies of people could bring aroundWherever she went among crowds of people was found
After Z.A. Bhutto’s judicial murder PPP’s mantle she tookEach effort was made to suppress the party by hook or by crook
Workers were lashed, hanged and thousands were confinedStill they did not leave Benazir but remained determined
But Young BB to all her sufferings put asideIn becoming source of strength for PPP took pride
Unfortunately, Benazir Bhutto saw one after another tragedyShe knew to transform oppression and threat into opportunity
Whenever she came out of jail or returned from exilesPeople gathered to see her in rallies of many miles
Benazir faced with boldness and courage any exile or arrestAs a seasoned politician successfully went through each test
To party internal matters she impressively resolvedDue to her contributions it further strengthened and evolved
She tried her best to personally visit as the party headAny worker suffered in struggle of democracy or became dead
Was needed by children as mother and husband as a wifeFor ensuring people’s rights preferred even to give her life
Benazir’s performance as PM is a bit difficult to discussHer hands were never free and had to face a lot of fuss
Unless allowed to stay for five years how could she contribute?Due to certain forces, to her policies, she could not execute
In state of terror, dirty deals, trafficking, failure and fragmentationBenazir Bhutto struggled day and night for democracy restoration
In all her public gatherings and in any kind of tourShe voiced grievances of the dispossessed and also poor

To rescue nation from undemocratic forces she would conquerNobody believed that due to this her murder would occur
The road to real democracy Benazir Bhutto knew very wellWas full of many dangers at many occasions she did tell
Who cares in this world for truthfulness and legitimacy?At every step one may have to face a new conspiracy
Benazir knew that in election rallies she was quite vulnerableIn Rawalpindi speech her confidence showed she was invincible
Because of her belief ‘good will succeed over evil’, she was killedVacuum created by Benazir Bhutto for long will not be filled
In Garhi Khuda Bux in her twenties to ZA Bhutto she buriedAfter Shahnawaz and Murtaza, about her own death was not worried
It is a universal truth known by all, not any kind of mysteryPeople who die for a cause are remembered in golden words in history
Twice prime minister of a muslim country after all she wasAnd would not have been murdered in this cruel way alas!!
The killers have made her more popular in this wayThe whole world to her rich tributes wants to pay
No doubt Benazir was a symbol and chain of federationPerhaps it may not be that much easy to digest her elimination
