Oh Hussien Your sacrifice how can we forget
Hussien you are the saviour of “nor was he begotten nor did he beget”
Hussien because of you we still hear the Azan from the Minaret
Since Ashur our cheeks with falling tears for you are still wet
We will visit you Hussien even when our lives are under threat
Oh Hussien how can we forget
Your blood Hussien is for humanity against evil a protective blanket
That day oh Hussien when you were beheaded with the strike on your neck
Oh Hussien on that day after the sun did set
Oh Hussien your daughter was slapped and veils taken form Muhammad’s Ahle Bait
Your sacrifices Hussien we can never Forget we can never forget.


Every tear for the martyr Hussien that falls from our eye
For every tear we shed and for every tear that we cry
His Mother Fatemah does come and she collects every tear
Our cries and screams Lady Fatemah does hear
Then she takes them in her hand and for us does say a prayer
Then Fatemah uses these tears to fill up the heavenly well of Kawther


Oh Hussain you fought the tyrants and their Oppression
Oh Hussain you taught us defence against aggression
Against an umayyad onslaught of arrogance and transgression
You gave your head Hussain and saved Islams every generation


Oh Abbas when your alam is risen and passes us by

We remember you and to get water for binte Hussain how hard you did try

On ashura this alam fell but we promise forever we will hold it high

’till our death and in our graves even when we are risen when we hear your name we will cry

When we want our wishes fulfilled Ya bab al Hawaaj we ask but we feel very shy

For we ask with our hands to the one whose hands were severed from his side 

Ya Abbas as if this was not enough they pierced an arrow through your eye

Ya Abbas when you fell to the ground and the alam fell Sakina started to weep and cry

When you called your master as he ran he saw the first and then the other severed hand

He saw them lying on the ground  lying in the hot hot sand,

Each step he took more and more pain

Hearing you say Adrikini Ya Hussien Adrikini Ya Hussien

As he approached ,you said Oh Mawla do not take me back ,for to get the children water i did fail

Oh Abbas what will happen to Zainab, Sukaina will be slapped and and they will be stripped of thier veil 

Hussien sees you on the ground and lifeless your body does lay

Hussiens hears not a sound and This is when Hussien does say 

Looking towards Najaf his eyes with dry tears filled. 

My back is broken My back is broken My Brother Abbas has been killed

 


Sands Of Kerbala
11 13th, 2009

Oh sands of Kerbala soaked in the blood of Hussien

Covered in the redness of Muhamed’s sons blood your sands are stained

To you oh sands of Kerbala this lover of Shabbir does in anger complain

For when I walk where Ali, Abbas,Asghar and Hussien were slain,

How my walking can I sustain, All I feel is deep deep pain

For here I stand where my heroes bled from every artery and every vein


Learn to love Ali(as)
09 21st, 2008

The suns light dims and the glimmer of the stars start to fade,

This light and glimmer of hope today on the 19th of Ramadhan has been attacked by a poisonous blade,

Every command of his Lord Ali(as) has obeyed,

For his total love of Allah(swt) today his due Ali(as) has paid,

His blooded beard does testify,

That a man Allah(swt) himself does sanctify,

Oh muslims with hate him you vilify,

The truth you you hide and no matter how hard you try,

The truth is real the Truth can never die,

Ali (as) left us with Hasnain(as) and Zainab(as) to fight,

He gave everything for Allah(as) and for what is right,

So Learn from Ali(as)  everything for Allah(as) learn to give,

And learn to love Ali(as) so you can learn to LIVE!!!!.


Wordly Love
02 7th, 2008

What will happen in the grave

Not thinking about life after death being so brave

Forgetting about the things to us that Allah(SWT) gave

For worldly gains we beg we crave

One thought! our souls we must surely save

satan is always pulling us to his ways

Short is this life so fill it by reciting Allahs(SWT) praise

Be aware that Qiyamat itself is Thousands of days

Fear yourself dont be fooled and fall in love with this world its only a phase

For it has two exits one is eternal bliss in Heaven and the other the fire of Hell a never ending blaze


We cry for Hussien(AS) and say we would before you have died

Yet ask yourself mahmood do you act like his oppressor with ego and pride

Question is can we put our hand on our heart and say we would be on Hussiens(AS) side

Try in a dark room alone and let the truth in you answer and then decide.


Death has to be tasted by all

Each man builds his kingdom and then his kingdom does fall

On earth fearless walking tall

And then comes the Angel and death does call

Fear and weakness set in

Pleading and begging begin

Worrying about every sin

Now a beggar when once a king

The doors of the grave start opening

Oh I forgot just one more thing

This is the start of our reckoning.


To be like Ali(AS) is hard but its harder to make him againFor a new Ahmed(SAWW) a new Zahra(AS) a new Kaaba will not be made the same

And anyway Ali(AS) is he that the nusayrrih call by Allahs(SWT) name

Brothers Allah(SWT) does not create Allah again and again


We all know our own secrets deep in our hearts and minds,

We can never tell people so we keep them quietly confined

But to think they will always stay hidden is for sure not real

For Allah knows the truth and one day the truth he will reveal


Ya Zaynab(A.S)
01 26th, 2008

Ya Zaynab(A.S) you surely saved Islam when you stood in yazid the tyrants palace and his court

Ya Zaynab(A.S) with your wisdom and your calm, against falsehood amid ignorance and malice for Islam you fought


‘Till my death and in my grave Ya Hussien(A.) I’ll say

I’ll be crying for Hussien(A.S) even when I am risen on Judgement day

When I goto Heaven and when Heaven accepts me

I’ll have a condition and that is to do Hussiens(A.S) azadari

So brothers come cry for Hussien(A.S) and learn to say Ya Ali(A.S)

This is the oath you have to take to join the army of Ya Mahdi (may Allah hasten his appearance)


Markets of Shaam
01 25th, 2008

Oh Markets of Shaam how did you accommodate

The prisoners of Muhammed’s(SAWW) house,his Ahlul Bayt(A.S)

Their men murdered by Ibn muawiya the apostate

Scarfless is Zaynab(A.S) and your streets you do ornate

Your people beat drums,whistle and celebrate

Oh Shaam this disgrace how can you tolerate

Oh Shaam this is the house of those to whom angels do prostrate

Of the two weighty things Muhammed(SAWW) left, one is the Quran and oh Shaam this is the other weight

Oh Shaam for Mahmood your market is a burning fire at the end of which is Hells Gate!!!!

 


You call us kufr and accuse us with your lies,

With us you do differ and you severe all ties,

Fallacy you bicker and the truth you disguise,

Just like the devil lucifer the truth you’ll never realise,

But to truth you shall refer when the Awaited One does arrive

Oh how you will tremble and shiver 

When our Mahdi(a.s) reappears and justice does arrive


A drop of rain
01 11th, 2008

I am nought but a drop of rain

I water mans crop and his grain

How would man know my inner pain

How to man this can I explain

What can I say to who can I complain

How can I cool my inner burning flame

Where was I on Ashura I am to blame

Because I didn’t fall on the Holy lips of Imam Hussien (a.s)

 

 


HUR (a.s)
01 11th, 2008

Ya Hur from darkness into light

To be Hussien’s (a.s) soldier to argue his right

You became his servant and for him you did fight

You walked from hell to heaven on this night.


Ziyarat Aashurawma
10 6th, 2007

This month of Ramadhan is ending hells gates open once more,
The raining of mercy will trickle when in this month it for sure did pour,
Are our sins forgiven so many that we commit,
In front of the one who forgives did we beg enough or just a little bit,
If we were on trial and the judge said you shall be pardoned if for mercy you plead,
For a month you would beg and beg for mercy indeed,
So understand the chance to us  that Ya Rahim Allah has given,
We have a blessing for in this month our sins can be forgiven


The Night of Qadr
10 6th, 2007

Tonight is Qadr the night when the devils are chained,

The night of power the night when tomorrow is ordained,

 Tonight heavens gate is open hells gate is closed so pray tonight from the heavens mercy shall rain,

 Ask for forgiveness from the creator so pardon is gained,

So your past through repentance is cleansed and your soul with evil is not stained
