If I wasn’t Muslim
Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum.
If I wasn’t born Mohammedan
Life for me would have been fun.

I could live and prosper
On my land and I could even build a bigger house
I wouldn’t have to, every now and then,
Run and hide like a mouse.

If I wasn’t Muslim
Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum.
My neighbors wouldn’t set my home on fire
And surround me with barbed wire

I wouldn’t live in terror
Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum.
Books wouldn’t teach you that I was an error
In European history.


Ref:

I would not have to prove that I am not stupid
A backward and primitive villain
An alien threat to your way of life
to be hunted down.

I wouldn’t be so ashamed of
The names of my relatives and mine
Of the Semitic language I speak to my God
That no one here understands


My tradition wouldn’t insult
My Christian neighbors and friends
My diet, my cap, the Ramadan fast
the crescent and the star.

Bayram, I know, will never be famous
like Christmas or Easter Sunday
so modern and cool, so western,
and - oh so “secular”.


If I wasn’t Muslim
If I had an ordinary Slavic Christian name
If I wasn’t circumcised
If I could eat my eggs with ham

I would be accepted
Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum.
I’d blend in to Europe and enjoy
I wouldn’t be its whipping boy.


– oh boy –


If I were a Christian
I wouldn’t have to prove that I am human too.
‘Cause when you’re Christian you’re always civilized
no matter what you wear or do.

But when you are a Muslim
It is really hard to find some sympathy for you
No one really likes you, no one really cares
No one wants to know your point of view.


If I wasn’t Muslim
Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum.
If I was a part of Christendom
Europe would be my sweet home.

I wouldn’t have to worry
Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum.
What will happen in a year or two
Will I have to leave or stay and die
Drop my pants to be identified and put aside
Just ‘cause I’m a Mussulman?

pa to nije neizlechiva bolest.
odrekni se islamskog zla i uzmi
ime iz svog naroda .

koje Bosnjacko prezime da uzmem posto znamo da su sve srpska prezimena na ic?

Ibramimovic, Osmanagic, Hadzifejzovic, Ibrahimpasic????

Ali zato tvoja bolest ocigledno jeste..

Strasno 

Najiskrenije se nadam da ti nisi postao Muslimanski vernik zbog ove pesme
(npr. pogledaj ovaj 'teološki' niz:
"Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum").

@Ibn

imas Sahbaz   

Ovo je stvarno glupost!

a zashto morash da imash prezime sa arapskim korenom
kad nisi arapin ? zashto se stidish svog naroda i svoje rase ?

@ibn ul hattab

totalno neprimerena zemlja da pricas o diskriminaciji muslimana

zar ne znas da su tvoji preci bili hriscani koji su na silu islamizovani
zar ne znas da da smo 500 godina bili pod Turskom(citaj: muslimanskom) vlascu,da su nasi preci bili nabijani na kolac i placali danak u krvi

u Evropi kao hriscanin mozes imati suseda muslimana,a mozes li kao musliman u muslimanskim zemljama imati hriscana kao suseda?
spremni ste ovde da trazite svoja prava,a koliko prava hriscani imaju u muslimanskim zemljama?koliko hriscanskih crkvi ima u Iranu?
sta bi se meni desilo da przim slaninu tamo,da nosim krst oko vrata
