Enchained To Memories Of Ghame Hussain

Enchained To Memories Of Ghame Hussain, a photo by firoze shakir photographerno1 on Flickr.

a bawa
a beggar
poet in chains
pirouetting
on the sounds
of silence
on the chant of
ya hussain
ya hussain
syede sajjad
burning sands
manacled
more pain
the fourth imam
sham sham sham
he cries out
aloud to ali
the father
of hussain
his grand father
the conqueror
of khyber
man kunto maulah
reverbrating
again and again
was it all in vain
live like ali
die like hussain
lanat on yazid
beshumar lanat
on the killers
of ali and hussain
