âItâs not enough to be fed up by injustic,
We ought to tolerate the administration of justic
The people rushed imam Aliâs house and insisted that,
â O, Ali(pbuh) please assume the responsibility for the givernmentâ
But the imam stated,â No! leave me alone â
His majesty âs refusal was due to the matter that,
Although the people were fed up with oppression, they didnât call for justice anyhow.
