Declaration of Non-allegiance

Be it known
that I and my family
disclaim all allegiance whatsoever
to any political party,
State or Central,
and that we forswear
any link
that we or our ancestors
might have had even remotely ever
with any group or organisation
that works against the revolution.

We further solemnly aver
to distance ourselves for ever
from any adverse political views
and atone for any sins
of misunderstanding, pain or distress
caused by word, deed or conduct
from sheer oversight or ignorance.

We also notify and declare
through the columns of this paper
that we would never dare
even to consider being a member
of any group, subversive or under-cover,
that operates for the enemy
to undermine the cause so dear;
and that we will guide our life
through struggle, strife and care
on the shining trail
blazed by the brave mujahideen
and volunteer to offer
any sacrifice
that falls in our share.
