HEARD IN WHITE HOUSE HALLS
IRAN HAS US BY THE BALLS
TRUMP HEARING CAT CALLS
This love is an ocean of Oman, to this, there won't be a territory or edge
My evidence is secret of Quran, one who knows this will not be shamed
If you are in love with lover, do not be deceived by rest
In this rose garden nobody burns, like Abraham fall into blaze
Sword of Allah is happy with his words, it's his master's consent
There is no pen for insanes, whatever they say will not be blamed
Look this is secret of Quran, every being will taste death
Whoever enters does not stay, with two doors a house of rest
We are lovers we never die, we won't become soil decaying
We never stay in darknesses, to us there is no night and morning
Pray be upon you dear messenger of Allah
Peace be upon you dear lover of Allah
(Chorus)
Written by Seyyid Seyfullah (Sword of Allah)
Translation Onur Ünlü
The Star of Oman
By Joji Varghese Kuncheria
The star that dawned the horizon,
For five decades is gone for ever,
But the legacy is going to remain,
As a beacon to lead generations.
The people of the nation have seen,
This super star reigning in the sky,
With wisdom and understanding,
Pursuing lasting peace at all times.
A quality many refuse to embrace,
Has made him a champion of peace,
Overcoming the challenging times,
Through patience and endurance.
He devoted a whole life for the nation,
To raise the living standards sky high,
Bringing prosperity and a bright future,
To the young and the old of his country.
Though the star has eclipsed the skies,
The laurels are eternal to Sultan Qaboos,
For paving a way of peace, of harmony,
For generations to relish in future years.

I'll wrap around the silk of each day
until I will become core
to your time
I gather you up speck by speck
rumor
flutter
tear
I wait a becoming
bitter song
amidst the lips of the night
When the roads' arms
will embrace me
ripping my body
I'll sprout, shadowing the future
with your sky.
