The Suicide Bomber

Is lust for paradise not a lust? Tell me someone wise Rid of lust society must In whatever disguise Who is this suicide-bomber Tempted by lust of paradise Filled with concepts from gutter Castle to live and Houris as prize Blowing himself to shred With other innocent lives Looking at his targets with hatred With fiery venomous eyes Which saint, which teacher or scholar Has glorified self destruction Chain this man, for God’s sake, give his neck a collar He can’t be a godly man that harbours act of satan
