“What you have broken is the image of reverence of India
Do you have this idea, you who have broken the dome of the mosque
Not the building but our hearts have been broken
Your wickedness is limitless”

Quoted in "Two Urdu Poems Reflect How Babri Masjid Demolition Was an Attack on India as a Whole" https://thewire.in/books/babri-masjid-demolition-urdu-poetry-jagan-nath-azad, The Wire, 6 December, 2017.
Original: Ye tune Hind ki hurmat ke aaine ko toda hai
Khabar bhi hai tujhe Masjid ka gumbad todne wale
Humare dil ko toda hai imaarat ko nahi toda
Khabaasat ki bhi had hoti hai had todne wale
