It is the poem about Yom e Shuhada. it is day when our Pakistani Army martyred or you ca say the day of Martyrs.
"What's your last wish?" Asked pongo to his pongo friend A paper taken out by his friend From the pocket with shivering bloody hand Blood dropping down, he passed In the centre of fighting ground lying with few breathes he mourned and panted "give it to my mum and dad" "go and give it", to worker pongo ordered "with the verdure of martyrdom I am blessed With the great honour I am blessed With irenic of aeolian in heaven I am blessed For me my mom you prayed On me my dad you trusted That's why today with virtuous honour I am awarded By the painter of the world I fought bravely on the ground For my land Because for my patriotism filled heart you prayed That is why I could To the one who sent me in world Under the canopy don't mourn mum and dad My soul would be sad My mum, treasure of gold Don't lose your shining my gold Never larchymose but be proud On my success, I desired and deserved Mum of pongo's friend Folded the paper, she mounrned But then smiled On being the mother of son who was blessed This is an excerpt poem written by pongo's pongo's friend At night before his martyrdom and after his dad's wish.
A great piece, The pride and consolation that martyrdom brings is a strange and ambiguous emotion for the world to imagine, let alone understand. You've put the essence of it very aptly in this piece. Great work :) Cheers

Thank you for giving such a nice review and appreciation.
Powerful use of words and thoughts.
"To the one who sent me in world
Under the canopy don't mourn mum and dad
My soul would be sad
My mum, treasure of gold
Don't lose your shining my gold
Never larchymose but be proud "
The above lines stood for me. Asking to be celebrated in death. Not tears. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry.

I don't think the theme of this poem and the characters were worthy of Martyrdom, its easy to write a poem on martyrdom but we should exactly know who are the real martyrs.... People in Gaza are martyrs , people of Badr are martyrs so thats the only criticism i have have although technically I didnt found any fault in this poem.
Martyrdom for God, country holds a special place in many religions and cultures. As long as it is not for evil. Heaven is their reward. An excellent write...:).......
