Lover of Jihad (A poem)

My eyes wept over the separation,
Take me to the land of Jihad and then bid me farewell.
I remembered the Jihad so my tears overflowed,
And my eye awoke although it was subdued by humiliation.


I love the battle, but its mountains have tumbled.
I love the places of combat. Desist from me.
I speak to my soul; deprive it of its desires
I train it upon penetrating death.


For every love for other than Allaah,
Is a mirage, indeed from madness.
May Allaah curse the abstention (from Jihad) and whoever takes to its path,
And also every disappointing, wretched betrayer.


So O Lord of all slaves, Ya ilaahi,
Save me from meeting death,
While I am upon fragranced bedspreads
But instead I ask you, to be killed beneath the fortresses


And I am certain that the people
Will write my request to be from madness
So apologies and excuse me!
For I am one who loves Jihad, so free me

I don't know, who said he wrote it? Maybe he translated it, but this nasheed has been around for some time...different munshids have sung it...
