Jerusalem Poem by Asif Andalib

The holy land of children of Israel
Has been staining with the blood
Of innocent people for such along time!

The Jews, the Christians and the Muslims
Should live in peace and harmony
Side by side on the much disputed land
Since it’s holy to all of them.

The mosque of the prophets
Should be extended
With a view to make space
For all the three adherents of faith.

I know it’s a small piece of land
But we can solve the problem
By building skyscrapers.

O Jerusalem can’t you see
Your children are fighting against each other?
Please pray to God to end the conflict
