Hassan Nasrallah: The Lion of Resistance (An Ode)

Ode to Hassan Nasrallah: The Lion of Resistance

Curated by Mohammad Reza Peysepar

O Hassan, the Lion of Lebanon’s hills,

Your voice, a thunder, shattered the oppressor’s will.

From Bourj Hammoud’s humble streets you rose,

A beacon of hope, where resistance flows.

Your life, a testament to steadfast might,

A warrior of faith, in justice’s light.

With every word, you stirred the soul,

With every act, you made the broken whole.

In ’82, you forged Hezbollah’s flame,

A shield for the weak, a thorn to the oppressor’s name.

Through years of struggle, you stood unbowed,

Your courage a banner, your name avowed.

In 2006, the world saw your might,

A David against Goliath, in the darkest night.

You taught us strength is not in size,

But in the fire of hearts that never compromise.

O Hassan, your martyrdom, a star’s bright fall,

Yet your light lingers, inspiring us all.

In Beirut’s skies, your spirit soars,

A call to resist, to fight, to roar.

You walked the path of Imam Hussein,

With sacrifice and honor, through blood and pain.

Your death, a flame, ignites the oppressed,

A legacy of resistance, eternally blessed.

O leader, O guide, O voice of the free,

Your life a hymn to humanity’s plea.

Though you are gone, your echo remains,

In every heart that breaks its chains.

So rest, O Lion, in eternal peace,

Your legacy of courage shall never cease.

For in the struggle for justice and right,

Hassan Nasrallah, you are the eternal light.
