Qatar is home to many talented people. One of ILQ’s contributors, Asad Bisati shares his talent and passion with us through his poetic words, dedicated to Qatar, the Emir, and the people for National Day 2017! Find his poems below.

“The Leader”

Take the stand if you must,
Let the demons rust,
Not the powerful can lay waste
They planned in haste
Not counting on a leader to stand
They are lost finding claims so grand
Not counting on Tamim to stand
They lost for they had a weak stand
For his nation he stands
For his people he stands
For the right he stands
The leader Tamim stands

“Songs Need To Be Heard”

Sing songs of valor
Sing songs of hope
Sing for the leader
Sing for hope
He stands with you
Sing for he commands you
Raise your voices now
Let the world hear you now
Sing for your leader
Sing for hope
Don’t let bigotry command you
Sing for Tamim stands by you
Sing of freedom
Sing of hope
Sing for Tamim
He is our beacon of hope

“Wonder How?”

How can a man be so strong
How can a man stand so strong
How long can he resist
The powers at play persist
The dilemma within must overcome
A sane man would succumb
Yet for his nation he stood the test of time
The sun shined and he smiled
Not lost to words of the enemy
He stood strong for the man he be
A nation together for him to see
He stood for the world to see
