Who’s Next?!!

Palestine… Afghanistan… Iraq…and who’s next?

Who’s the coming victim on your bloody list?

I will never believe your stupid lie

You’re deceiving…Don’t deny!

 

I refuse, I object, I protest

Till the last breath, I’m going to resist

I will write till all the world’s ink is dry

I will scream and shout till I die…

 

Who has given you permission

To play the role of our supervisor?!

Confess…it’s only your ambition

Iraq is a big oil provider…

 

You said: “weapons of mass destruction”

And now that the strike has come into action

Did you find any? But even if you do…

Don’t Israel and North Korea have too?!!

 

So, you use double standards…that’s really obvious

Oh Mr. Great Power, this is ridiculous!

Think we believe you? This is funny indeed

We are aware that you are trying to mislead…

 

Painful images have been seen in Palestine

And now in Iraq… and they can’t see the sunshine

Oh my God! Oh till when?

Civilians are dying; kids, women and men…

 

“Iraqi refugees” Oh what a word!

That I was shocked when I heard

And I wonder…who’s the next to fall

In order for you to achieve your goal!

 

Hey Arabs! What will be the end of the story?

Who is going to defend our territory?

Our lands are falling… One after the other

And we are fragmented… not united together.

 

Who is next? I don’t know

But till the last breath, I WILL SAY NO

Hope will always shine, fighters will always be alive

We will never give up and we will survive.
