Every Land is Karbala Every Day is Ashura

Every Land is Karbala Every Day is Ashura, a photo by firoze shakir photographerno1 on Flickr.

holding the safety of her fathers hand
from the valley of Kashmir to a distant land
blood flowing on the carpet of Karbalas sand
yazid the butcher of Islam you must understand
to destroy the tenets of Faith his evil planned
hussain did not give into his demand
72 brave warriors against the power of 30000
he took command ..in defense of honor
his final stand ..sword held high
holy scriptures in his other hand
though yazid had the upper hand
hussainyat
a message of peace and brotherhood
part of a holy stand
every land is karbala
everyday is ashura
yazidiyat
we will withstand
