O' the Blessed Land
Humanity and peace is what they proclaim
Disguised as peacemakers
Only hatred they exclaim
Raging war like its a game
The Holy Land is what it's known as
Like this will years pass?
From ‘67 and now fifty-seven years later
And soon we hope they will be the narrator
The cries of innocent children they ignore
Survivors will surely reach the shore
Palestine, the Blessed Land!
Land of the Prophets (peace be upon them) and martyrs
Land of those martyrs with unbreakable faith
To their Lord did they turn to in moments of despicable oppression
Claiming their land was their only confession
And so for this their lives are destroyed?
Simply for claiming their land recorded in history
Or is history repeating itself?
Soon this won’t remain a mystery
As those oppressed are gaining undeniable victory
And the oppressors will be humiliated with disgrace
Although they act as if they have no clue
The help of their Lord is to come
The promise of their Lord is true
Precious souls are of value
In the name of their Lord have they sacrificed
And to Him will they return
And for the Blessed Land does the longing hearts yearn

This poem was written to bring awareness of the occupation that has been going on for years and still is in Palestine. This isn't a religious issue, rather it's about true justice. Each individual should take part in doing anything within their ability to spread awareness to stop this current day genocide.
