Analysis of Poetic Resistance Themes

Firm as we are, O alliance of division.

Firm as we are, O alliance of division. If you initiate it,

the blaze will sweep away the fire’s ruins.

By God, it has not begun to rage yet. Go on, whoever remains

among us will strike with fire. By God, we will inflict painful

blows. With God’s strength, arrogance will kneel.

Even if you destroy it, your economy will be more

devastated, beyond reconstruction. If the door breaks, my grandfather’s axe

will break it. If your banks collapse at a glance, they will collapse. A strike on

Aramco is ready to be repeated. If the coffin is pounded all around,

it will be crushed at night. Tell the neighbors of the refineries

to beware. We remain, no matter how many miles, it is not

the end. Your tyranny under the full moon will not

remain. In your work, you have grazed

cattle. Your leader warned you and gave notice,

and excused you. But you are going against

the current.

They have an opportunity before them.

If they miss it, they will regret it.

Against the current. We have determination and steadfastness,

developed. The people’s pride has issued a declaration. Either

we live free or we are buried, like the Prophet

and the Muhajirun and Ansar. We have determination and steadfastness,

developed. The people’s pride has issued a declaration. Either

we live free or we are buried, like the Prophet

and the Muhajirun and Ansar. Either we live free or

We bury them, like the Prophet, the Muhajirun and the Ansar.
