A Message
(Dedicated to all the victims of the savage terror attack on a mosque at Parade Lane …May their souls rest in peace)
by: Maj. Kashif Javed
I felt no pain, there was no scream;
Dont cry my love, my blood my soul;
I met my lord as a shaheed,
Why then you let these tears roll?
I’ll wait for you in skies above;
You go live life with hope and glee;
Ill be with you, your every step;
You just won’t have those eyes to see;
You’ll hear me laugh and see me play;
When all alone you’ll feel me by;
You’ll hear me call your name with love;
But only when you close your eye;
I was not there by chance or luck
I did not loose my life in vain
I followed the path he destined for me
As pious men in faith were slain
They thought they killed and scared us all;
Those fools who wrecked thy revered home;
But yet we live, as heroes in hearts;
And your call still booms in every dome;
Midst frayed flesh and reddened mud;
Wailing mothers and bawling kin;
I quenched thou thirst with tepid blood;
Ohh! sacred Loam I cleansed my sin;
Ablute , in prayer at Thy Masters feet ;
I never did dream such devout an end;
For those who live in thou name Ohh God!
What ways you find for angels to send;
They will not rein the air we breathe;
We lived as free and shall die free too;
The smell of fear they wish to spread;
Shall dissipate through faith in you;
A thousand mosques they may still burn;
And raze to ground a million home;
But these mislaid yet do know not;
It is not this life, its death we yearn;
awsome, simply great
