Satire
Onward, Liberal Soldiers!

Onward, Liberal soldiers!
Marching as to war,
With the standard of the Eternal Bhutto
Going on before.
Bhutto, the revered Master of Destroying Pakistan,
Leads against the foe of Accountability.
Forward into battle,
See his banners go!
Onward, Liberal soldiers!
Marching as to war,
With the standard of the Eternal Bhutto
Going on before.
At the sign of triumph
NAB’s host doth flee.
On, then, Liberal soldiers,
On to victory.
Pakistan’s foundations quiver
At the shout of praise;
Brothers and Sisters, lift your voices,
Loud your anthems raise.
Like a mighty army
Moves the Mafia of the Zardari and the Sharifs,
Led by His Royal Puffiness Prince Bilawal of Looterania
And Queen Maryam Safdar… oops Nawaz Sharif,
Brothers, we are treading
Where the Saints of Corruption have trod.
We are not divided.
All one body we:
One in hope and doctrine,
One in looting [Pakistan].
Onward, then, ye people.
Join our happy thieving throng.
Blend with ours your voices
In the triumph song:
Glory, laud, and honor
Unto Zulfikar Ali Bhutto.
This through countless ages
Liberal Men and Women sing.
