THE HOLY LAND ( PALESTINE)

What revered, holy land you are?

They took your homes, your olive trees

Ohh! Kingdom of heaven, now cursed you are

They let you gasp the breath they lease

What revered, holy land you are?

Your burning homes, those gardens charred

Those evil men that wretched star

Your love is scarred, your innocence marred

What revered, holy land you are?

Your scream in pain their terrorist act

Your pelting stones at armored car

Their lies, deceit are aired as fact

What revered, holy land you are?

Democracy, humanity, the right to live and breathe as free

Are they not dreams you’ve pushed so far?

So why now deaf to screams you are? Why this pain you fail to see?

What revered holy land you are?

Your silence is admission of guilt

Your judgment not a day so far

Forever none has ruled so far, the strongest realm they might have built

What revered holy land you are?

You’ve seen much worse of times in past

Such devilish men, the Satan’s czar

Nor they shall live nor curse shall last

What revered holy land you are?

You sacrificed, your cherished brood

Ohh Palestine, so brave you are

No one but you, shall last this feud

What revered holy land you are?

    • I’m really glad you liked it man. Dont know about the master piece but it had me twisting and turning for the last few hours. As for the pain we feel Usman, this is because of humanity. We are lucky to have it or else we might as well be animals. Palestine particularly holds this special place in our subconscious, always being equated to Kashmir with a well defined enemy (Israel). We don’t feel similar pain for thousands dieing in Africa or Myanmar although they are muslims too neither for Iraqis being killed by ISIS. For solutions you may refer to a wiser man, i just like expressing what i feel. Thanks again for the encouragement bro.
