Tale From a Woman's Name

It was started at the dawn
They are slain and gunned down
Deceived, promised and conned
From the islands they belong

They are in a special unit
Never wanted to submit
When they asked to commit
To kill and aimed Sabah to take

From a beautiful woman they're named
Became known as Jabidah Massacre
One survived that said the tale
Their lives were fought honor to reclaim

They ignited the battlecry
Thousands lives stick to die
The enemies have made a try
Until today their pride is high!


I love you peace. Let's sail together. Layag Sug!
47th Anniversary, 18 March 2015, SH, Nature City.
Alfatiha to the Martyrs!
