Allah Akbar! [Allah is Great] Oh, the young ones,
Shake the earth, raise the stones
You will not be saved, oh Zionist,
From the volcano of my county's stones.
You will not be saved, oh Zionist,
From the volcano of my county's stones.
You are the target of my eyes
The video is viewable at PMW's website.
