A Palestinian's Cry: Dr Minhajuddin Khurram's Poetic Chronicle on the Ongoing Genocide in Palestine
Oh the 'just' people of the world!
While you sleep, the bombs are hurled!!
Echoes of screams as terrorism unfurled!
Our abode destroyed while you remain unperturbed!!
Many a homes can be seen on fire!
Fathers, mothers, brothers and sisters all dressed in ruby attire!!
Oh the 'just' people of the world!
While you sleep, 'human animals' we are referred!!
Blood bath on every inch of our land!
Resilient to the atrocities while we stand!!
Oh the 'just' people of the world!
Our newborns are butchered with you are not concerned!!
Our land shakes and children cry!
As they watch their brothers and fathers die!
Oh the 'just' people of the world!
While you surfeit, our throats go dry!
My daughter under the rubble - she screams!
Is it a reality my father, or just a dream!!
Oh the 'just' people of the world!
While you sleep in your couches undisturbed!!
We die in valour and our children alike!
Determined to the core as we fight!!
Oh the 'just' people of the world!
Watch us with freedom as we emerge!!
We die fighting the tyrant, we win!
Victory awaits in the next world that begins!!
Oh the 'just' people of the World!
Enjoy your wealth while we fight undeterred!!
My generations suffered while you lavished!
What in front of Allah, shall you anguish!!
Oh the 'just' people of the world!
You ignored while we were tossed and twirled!!
The doctors here refuse to say 'No'!
While warriors fight unarmed as their iman grow!!
Oh the 'just' people of the world!
While you sleep, a genocide here unfurled!!
We refuse to vacate what is ours!
As we stand like a massif against the 'superpowers'!!
Oh the 'just' people of the world!
We resist and shall win our land impearled!!
(in Sha Allah)
