Analysis of Don't Despair - Victory Is Near
O' God show me the way
So that I could tell
Those who pray one God,
Those who follow their prophet
Those who recite their Holy Book
But neither people nor leaders
In their lives
Act on that as its context
Kashmiris breathe
In the tyranny of democratic beasts
Palestinians live
In occupation of Zionists
And cruel occupiers
For decades and decades
Alas, the Muslim world
And United Nations stayed
Dumb, Deaf, and Blind
Except issuing words of condemnation
On the unjust, oppressive, rapes,
And killing practices and deeds
The Muslim States, Rulers,
And Armed Forces are unique-brave only
For murdering own people
And damaging unity and resources
To stay in power
Such rulers let destroyed Iraq, Libya,
Afghanistan, Yemen, and Iran
Spending trillions of wealth
The Muslim States fought wars
In the interests of those who preach
Justice, Equality, Honesty, Harmony,
And Peace, but never learn themselves
How they can apply justice
For Palestinians and Kashmiris?
Otherwise, peace was destiny
And the destination of Muslim State
And entire humanity.
In such a scenario Kashmir,
And Palestine will stay bearing cruelty,
Unjust, oppression, and bloodshed
We belong to Allah
And to Him, we shall return.
Oh, Palestine, oh, Kashmir
Do not despair
Victory is near.
