Your son oh mother Doesn’t want to see you cry Mother get ready Today oh mother my heart feels so bright and to my father I will go after I die * * * * To Hussein Jassim is heading and he wants to offer his life His mother wanted to see him, married standing next to his wife Instead of this he will now face, every spear with every sharp knife Oh Jassim when you left the tent What were you thinking when you went? To the lord your life will be sent And I stay in grieve and in strife With your father’s soul I hope you come back alive For Hussein my son Go to the war and please strive The death oh mother is my only sight and to my father I will go after I die * * * * To the war Jassim has left and on his shoulders mountains of pain From the clouded soldiers fired, the arrows just like they were rain For your news they are now waiting, your mother and Uncle Hussein You were hit my son on your head Paid your life just like how you said On the path your father has led He who hits you must be insane Too young you are son How could they hit you like this? True soldier you are Your strength we will always miss The words you told me let me go and fight and to my father I will go after I die _______ A.J.K |
