Kadhum al Sahir - Baghdad don't hurt

To my beloved Baghdad...


The children of sad Baghdad are asking
For what reason are they being killed?
They are staggering on top of the ruins of hunger
They share the bread of death, then they die

God is Greater than the war’s destruction, Baghdad
And this unfair world full of hatred
God is Greater than those who start those wars on the innocents
And greater than all those blood traders
Baghdad don’t hurt…
Baghdad you are in my blood
Baghdad … Baghdad…

Shame on this civilized age… what a shame!
Has scaring nations become a slogan for glory and victory?
Has killing innocents become a sign of honor and pride?

God is Greater than the war’s destruction,
Baghdad And this unfair world full of hatred
God is Greater than those who start those wars on the innocents
And greater than all those blood traders
Baghdad don’t hurt…
Baghdad you are in my blood
Baghdad … Baghdad…

You are the path of the lovers, you are my wound
Leave your wounds on my shoulder and hug my small heart
The civilization will never live without a heart and conscience

God is Greater than the war’s destruction,
Baghdad And this unfair world full of hatred
God is Greater than those who start those wars on the innocents
And greater than all those blood traders
Baghdad don’t hurt…
Baghdad you are in my blood
Baghdad … Baghdad… Baghdad…
