Poetry:
Zayn al-'Abideen
sweet Zayn al-'Abideen
forever tears will flow
for you suffered so
from the plain of karbala
you were dragged so far
shackled with wicked chains
inflicted with such pain
never eyes could see
how they tortured thee
how blood fell on your hand
amid the sweltering sand
for what crime were you taken there
how could they be so unfair
your crime was to go for Islam
for the benefit of mankind
they dragged you from town to town
they strived to bring you down
they tried to break your will
and in your mind did peace instill
in the court of cursed yazid
attacked you, they surely did
Zainab protected you
as your illness weakened you
to fight another day
was the only way
to save the message of Allah
you surely suffered so
for years oppression would stand
forgotten that wicked land
oh loathsome Karbala
where innocents murdered were
no place was ever safe
for the Ahlul Bayt
so lonely abandoned you stood
for the sake of good
