The noble grandfather taught a new way
Reminding the teachings of prophets of yore
Calling to one God and truth
Kill not, nor steal
And honor your women folk
With Khaleel upon his shoulder
Brought the gods tumbling down
Destroying racism he raised Bilal to make the call
For posterity, his last wish, hold to the weighty two
Which hand in hand will guide
Lead you to the heavenly pond
But for gold and fame and the glittering crown
To heaven’s seven winds the teachings are thrown
The brother and the Hasanayn
Through Sajjad, Baqir, Sadiq and al Kadhim
Then Ridha, Taqi, Naqi and Askariyy
Toiled to keep alive his sublime way
Now once again vice has become virtue
The steadfast far and few
The ummah calls for its promised master
And waits, with bated breath
Fervently supplicating for him
The son of noble ancestry
The sun behind the clouds
To revive the religion anew
And bring the idols crashing down.
