These Chains We Will Break Lyrics

These chains we will break

These chains we will break

For Karbala lives on

Through our history of faith

These chains we will break

These chains we will break

For Karbala lives on

Through our history of faith

Kufyan battle strikes the heart

Upon the burning sands of Karbala

Al-Asghar's death sounds the start

Of the war between evil and the mustafa

These chains we will break

These chains we will break

For Karbala lives on

Through our history of faith

These chains we will break

These chains we will break

For Karbala lives on

Through our history of faith

The men of battle moves forward

To their destined stations of glory

Martyred for Allah, never in vain

We will always remember their stories

These chains we will break

These chains we will break

For Karbala lives on

Through our history of faith

These chains we will break

These chains we will break

For Karbala lives on

Through our history of faith

Ali looking down upon his son

So proud of all that he achieves

Evil will think it won today

Little do they know that Hussayn succeeds

These chains we will break

These chains we will break

For Karbala lives on

Through our history of faith

These chains we will break

These chains we will break

For Karbala lives on

Through our history of faith

Women and children placed in chains

Veils pulled off to humiliate them

They walk with heads high, despite their pain

Telling their story from Iraq to Sham

These chains we will break

These chains we will break

For Karbala lives on

Through our history of faith

These chains we will break

These chains we will break

For Karbala lives on

Through our history of faith

Brought to the court of tyranny

Yazid sat there waiting for them to show

He wanted to kill Zainul Abedeen

But our Bibi stepped in to save him so

These chains we will break

These chains we will break

For Karbala lives on

Through our history of faith

These chains we will break

These chains we will break

For Karbala lives on

Through our history of faith

These men with their trickery, tries to ask her

How she thought Allah treats her family

Zainab stands up, so brave and pure

She tells them: "I saw nothing but beauty"

These chains we will break

These chains we will break

For Karbala lives on

Through our history of faith

These chains we will break

These chains we will break

For Karbala lives on

Through our history of faith

He thought he won the war and the battle was done

But the word was spread throughout the land

Oppression will never beat justice

For together, united we will stand

These chains we will break

These chains we will break

For Karbala lives on

Through our history of faith

These chains we will break

These chains we will break

For Karbala lives on

Through our history of faith
