To The Martyrs Poem by gul naz

Let me smolder myself today

Let me live my dreams tonight

Hold me not, I will never come back

Life is now no more in my hands

Let me die to one whom I owe

Look I just want to tell you that

That all those thorns that were in your way

I have picked them under my feet today

See no dirt will touch you now

I have cleaned your way

With my blood and sweat

The wilderness within me is giving me strength

To smash all hurdles and break all bars

The unconscious youth is left behind

My joy is no more warm, cozy bed

My loyalties, my faith, my love are with you

Don’t flow tears when I am not back

Don’t make my sacrifice a waste

Pray my soul is now in peace
