The Murder of Mir Imad (Remaster)

Mir Imad
Caligrapher for Shah Abbas
Copied poetry to Allah
Back in old Persia

Mir Imad
Provoked the jealous Ali Riza
Murdered on his way to Haman
While leaving Isfahan

Your Nastaliq just can't be beat
Your penmanship so nice and neat
They'll leave your body in the street
When they find out that you're Sunni

Mir Imad
Had a nephew named Rashida
Who fled to the court of Shah Jahan
Down in India

Mir Imad
Although you're dead and gone
Your legacy still lives on
All across Iran

Your Nastaliq just can't be beat
Your penmanship so nice and neat
They'll leave your body in the street
When they find out that you're Sunni
