مجھےنہیں پتاکہ اس بارمیں بچتاہوں یانہیں۔ہاں میرےپاس اتنےپیسےضرورہیں کہ بیماری بگڑنےپرمہنگاعلاج کراسکتاہوں مگرسچ تویہ ہےکہ جب میں اپنےہرطرف غربت،بےبسی،محرومی دیکھتاہوں توایسی دنیامیں فقط جیےچلےجانےکابھی اب مزانہیں۔
جنت میں جانےسےپہلےیہ دنیابدلناضروری ہے۔
In a Tweet, the Musician said, “I don't know if I will survive this time or not. Yes! I have enough money to pay for expensive treatment, but the truth is that when I see poverty, helplessness and deprivation all around me, it is no longer fun to just live in such a world,”
