“He sacrificed his life for the land.
They wrapped him in white cloth with a flower.
He shouted and said: “How sweet is Martyrdom.”
Meeting his Lord was his choice.
He adorned his land with the purest blood.
Tears for him are [tears of] joy. [His] mother makes sounds of joy.
[The Martyr] a groom and his wedding – Martyrdom and heroism.
Oh hero, rest in peace, do not worry.”
Note: According to Islamic belief, the Martyr (Shahid) marries 72 Dark-Eyed Virgins in Paradise.
