India (i/ˈɪndiə/), officially the Republic of India (Bhārat Gaṇarājya), is a country in South Asia. It is the seventh-largest country by geographical area, the second-most populous country with over 1.2 billion people, and the most populous democracy in the world. Bounded by the Indian Ocean on the south, the Arabian Sea on the south-west, and the Bay of Bengal on the south-east, it shares land borders with Pakistan to the west;China, Nepal, and Bhutan to the north-east; and Burma and Bangladesh to the east. In the Indian Ocean, India is in the vicinity of Sri Lanka and the Maldives; in addition, India's Andaman and Nicobar Islands share a maritime border with Thailand and Indonesia.
Home to the ancient Indus Valley Civilisation and a region of historic trade routes and vast empires, the Indian subcontinent was identified with its commercial and cultural wealth for much of its long history. Four of the world's major religions—Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism—originated here, whereas Zoroastrianism, Christianity, and Islam arrived in the 1st millennium CE and also helped shape the region's diverse culture. Gradually annexed by and brought under the administration of the British East India Company from the early 18th century and administered directly by the United Kingdom from the mid-19th century, India became an independent nation in 1947 after a struggle for independence that was marked by non-violent resistance led by Mahatma Gandhi.
Hassan Nisar (Punjabi: حسن نثار) is a syndicated columnist and an analyst with his own talk show Choraha on Geo TV, Pakistan. His presentations are in Urdu. His commentaries in print media and television focusing on contemporary Pakistan, and the political history of Islam, have earned him both praise from liberal peers and scorn from Nationalist and religious elements in Pakistan.
Although Nisar is a veteran journalist, who has been involved with print media for more than a decade, he became a household name due to the rise of private TV channels in Pakistan followed by YouTube, where many of his TV appearances including Meray Mutabiq (Urdu: میرے مطابق) are regularly uploaded. He has also hosted a talk show, "Choraha" on Geo News.
He is criticized by fellow journalists for being biased against PML(N).[citation needed]

In dieser grauen Welt
Wo niemand singt
Sah ich das Gesicht einer menschlichen Puppe
Ihre Augen waren aus Glas
Und ihr Haar war golden
Von ihren süßen, weichen Lippen
Konnte man diesen Song hören
REFRAIN:
Nanana, nana nanana, nana . . .
Dort, wo die Hölle um die Ecke liegt
Berührte ich ihre Hand
Die war so babysüß
Dort küßte sie mich
Ich konnte spüren, wie ihr Song
Mir die Kehle herunter lief
REFRAIN
Mein Vater sagte mir, wenn du weiterleben willst
Dann fass sie lieber nicht an
Das ist kein Spielzeug
Die Wahrheit ist, Junge
Dass ich ein verdammter Narr bin
Ich verließ diejenige, die ich liebte, und sang
REFRAIN
Sag mir, was es ist
Was mich zu dir zurückbingt
Sag mir, was es ist
Dass ich nicht aufhören kann, dich zu lieben
Sag mir, was es ist
Was mich zu dir zurückbringt
Sag mir, was es ist
Dass ich nicht aufhören kann, dich zu lieben
REFRAIN
Drum bring mich zurück in dein Land
Wo der schwarze Schwan die einzige liebte
Die ich verlor
Meine Generation sing, wenn das Radio spielt
Die Melodie von der menschlichen Puppe
REFRAIN
