the world stood still
when imam hussain died
his head decapitated
his rights denied
unlike jesus
he was not crucified
suffering a greater pain beside
trials tribulations
only god
the spirit of his grand father
the valor of his father
72 braves on his side
against yazid
his 30000 warriors
to collide
this an unnecessary  war
of early Islamic
tribal  politics
Yazids pretentious pride
that the  silent majority
has denied
karbala the land of sorrows
bleeding from within from outside
hussain is humanity
a thought world wide
our beacon and our guide
it was yazid
the nation of islam
fractured a divide
good and evil
face to face
side by side
the laws the tenets of Islam
for personal gain thrown aside
to appease Fatima tears
the lord created the shias
who for 1400 years have cried
a protest against terrorism
that wont ever subside
with our blood sweat and tears
to a cause applied
alam abbas mashke sakina
succor to our souls provide
