The Days Which Are Coming in India

 "A curse shall light upon the limbs of men;
 Domestic fury and fierce civil strife shall cumber all the parts of Italy;
 Blood and destruction shall be so in use and dreadful objects so familiar
 That mothers shall but smile when they behold their infants quarter'd with the hands of war;
 All pity choked with custom of fell deeds:
 And Caesar's spirit, ranging for revenge,
With Ate by his side come hot from hell,
Shall in these confines with a monarch's voice Cry
"Havoc!" and let slip the dogs of war;
That this foul deed shall smell above the earth
 With carrion men, groaning for burial.
  (Shakespeare: Julius Caesar Act 3 Scene 1)

 " Hai maujazan ek kulzume-e-khoon, kaash yahi ho
 Aata hai abhi dekhiye kya kya merey aage "
      Mirza Ghalib "
i.e.
" There is already a turbulent sea of blood before me
   But see what is going to come in the days ahead ".
