He died, he died,
How do not to weep with joy,
Millions of dreams are fulfillled,
This man prevented me from inhaling
And now
Abbottabad is a holy city,
I shall circle one thousand times this city,
I shall kiss the ground of its streets,
We inhale a purer air,
The snake was crushed,
The head was crushed
Between the stone and the pestle,
He died in his dreams,
He died in his desert
In his middle age,
He died in his war dreams,

Abbottabad is a holy city,
How do not to weep with joy
In the walls of my silence
In the walls of my spring?

On Sunday will remain sacred,
On Sunday I walked
Near Battery park
On Sunday is a party of flowers
We shall not see any more this vile snake
Offend the world,
Murder women
The madman died, lives the madman
Abbottabab is a holy city,
I cried 10 years ago,
I cried to have cried,
I cry to have cried,
But my tears today are pure tears,

Angels dance on walls in jubilation
On the high naked clouds.

PS :

hello everyone, I wrote this poem with emotion, but inside me, I will never be happy and rejoicing of the death of a man, whoever he is, but I was devasted by the past events and I guess many people deserve to be consoled with such a write, I regret in my heart to have to write such verses…

I'm not unhappy the bastards is dead. I just doubt the report. Where are the pictures? Why buying him at sea so quickly, never mind Islam law?

Another point of view to be respected.
He was a vile, and evil man, a religious maniac, and needed to be subdued..though now he is a martyr.

The world is no better off for his death, and yet we justify it- revenge is sweet, so they say.

But his death to me is  like a nuclear power plant..we build them (kill him) but don't know what to do with the waste, do not know the effects of what has been burned-nuclear fuel, or bin Laden's life.
It is a very complicated situation, and your poem is a result of that.

I enjoyed reading it-your skill of word use makes it clear and understandable.

The emotional overtones in its content makes it all the more effective..
