"Today is Direct Action Day Today Muslims of India dedicate their lives and all they possess to the cause of freedom Today let every Muslim swear in the name of Allah to resist aggression Direct action is now their only course Because they offered peace but peace was spurned They honoured their word but they were betrayed They claimed Liberty but were offered Thraldom Now Might alone can secure their Right"
