"you shine"

"you shine"

I would close my eyes and drown in my dreams

You’d be wide awake in the night fighting the extremes

One day I opened my eyes and met the morning breeze

It was carrying your scent through streets and alleys

Ever since you left, I must confess

The world has become a total mess

You were the bridge that connected hearts

Always there for us when we were in distress

Everywhere I look I see your trace

You tried to make the world a better place

Oppressors will never forget your frown

The oppressed will not forget the smile on your face

O how you shine like a constellation in the sky

O how you shine in the minds of nations that hold you high

O tell me how it feels under the tree of bliss

The trees you planted are missing you

But they have learned to blossom just like you

Though you were martyred mercilessly

An army of you is growing globally

Because people are tired of all this prejudice

They want to fight like you against injustice

Your name is Q.S

You’re a hero of humanity

You defied the limits of intelligence

Sending shivers down the spine of Global Arrogance

You decried oppression in every form

Even though it put you in the eye of the storm

You extinguished the flames of terror far and wide

You helped countries to reclaim their land that was occupied

That’s why people will remember you as a hero

Though the powers-that-be will picture you as a foe

You see they instigate the terror and manipulate the news

So they can whitewash every crime to make the world confused

They can say what they want, let them curse at the mirror

Truth will always prevail, let them live in error

You found the key to heaven’s gate

Martyred for justice, what a noble fate

Your legacy will linger on

Forever your name we celebrate

O how you shine like a constellation in the sky

O how you shine in the minds of nations that hold you high

O tell me how it feels under the tree of bliss

O how you shine like a constellation in the sky

O how you shine in the minds of nations that hold you high

O tell me how it feels under the tree of bliss

O how you shine

O how you shine

O tell me how it feels under the tree of bliss

O how you shine
