All around us is suffering
Millions fleeing from their homeland
Desperate to escape the violence
And Hussain helps us to understand

That to stay quiet whilst other scream
To fold our hands when others are helpless
Is not an option we, as humans should take
We should be moved by the truth within us

Everywhere there is some form of oppression
Be aware of this, wherever you are
And this is why every day is Ashura
And every land is Karbala

Hussain stood up for truth, for freedom
Without bias, without fear, without greed
He gave himself for everyone
So generous, so brave, so free

Hussain stands against all oppression
And will always move hearts throughout the ages
Because in every age there is injustice
Just look through history's blood soaked pages

With his blood Hussain watered the roots
Of human values that had been dying
He brought them back to life
And we should also be trying

To be the best people we can
Purify our souls, respect and love each other
For as Hussain's father, Ali said
If not in faith, then in humanity we're brothers

Saqib Hussain
