Brothers or strangers
 

Hashim Al Fahd

.1.

Me strange

Yet chanting

O Suhad in our love

Despite suffering

Ah for a homeland

Torn

By terrorism

.2.

Whims played with him

And lures  

On the strength of reasons

Ah to

People of attachment

And loyalty

Ah for us

As though we're strangers

.3.

My daughter Suhad

They killed affection

And amicability

With trial of opposites

And rendered people

To remnants  

What should I say?

 Against them

Brothers or strangers

.4.

O mother of glories

Be patient

Satire will not avail

They orphaned our children

And widowed women

For objects

They relish  

They implanted hostility

And shut the doors

.5.

What should I say?

And who am I?

The Euphrates water

And the Tigris

Had become a mirage

And poison in the drink

.6.

So, for how long

My exile to disappear

O my homeland

My night so long

My body thin

And they blew up the Mihrab

.7.

By the will of masters

They deployed squads  

Aimed to kill

And to pervert

They drowned the country

In hatred and havoc

O mother of glories

What has befallen us

Caused by hostilities

Ignorance and strangers
