Ya Kassim(AS)

Oh Kassim you went to your mother
for permission and then your uncle Hussain

He refused you and said you are a sign of my brother
I shall not let you be slain

You begged and begged, you kissed his hands
You begged even more and said uncle please understand

You fell to his feet and begged even more
Until he said yes and tears from his eyes did pour

You got up ready,ready to fight
And your uncle Hussain hugged you very very tight

You put on your armour and were ready to go
You were not to return this your uncle did know

He fell on the hot sand and started to weep
His nephew to be martyred his pain so deep

What courage and valour you went into war
Until you were struck and you fell to the floor

Horses stampeded your body they tore
This pain in my heart I still do store

You called out oh uncle help me, uncle Hussain
My mission is complete I have been martyred I have been slain…..
