Oh Hassen, I'm sad for you
Oh Hassen, I’m sad for you
Hassen Naserullah, the head of the Lebanese terrorism militia (Party of God), admitted that his group is fighting in Syria in support of Assad
By Tarif Youssef Agha
Oh Hassen, I’m sad for you
This is Syria, not Lebanon
This is Syria, not a picnic
You are either mistaken
Or you must be drunk
You will leave it in regret
You will leave it naked
Didn’t anyone tell you about Missaloon (Syrian heroic battle)?
Or about Hanano, Al-Kharrat and Sultan (Syrian historic independence fighters)
This is Syria, the land of free people
You will leave it, no matter how long you it takes you
You will leave, oh butcher
Not you alone, but with all the thugs
You will leave with Bashar
But also with Iran as well
He who steps on Syria with his foot
We will step on him with fire
If your sword is sharp
The sword of our people can cut iron
Our people who defeated state armies
Will not be scared of a blubberer
You and your party are weightless in our eyes
To us, you are like a feather facing a storm
Our revolution uncovered your lies, oh Hassen
Our revolution uncovered all the secrets
Oh Hassen, we thought that you are people of resistance
But we found out that you are, in war, just starters
And you, whom we thought a hero
We found out that you are a back-stabber
We, who in the war of July (2005)
Opened for you the heart and the house
But when the Syrian people needed you
You confronted them with a huge army
The big will always be big, as the little will always be little
And no matter how big the mouse becomes, it will always be a little mouse
