Gitmo Poetry

From Jules Crittenden's Guantanamo Poetry Contest:

Second Thoughts

I think that I have never seen,
A poem as lovely as a U.S. Marine,
Standing there, so tall and straight,
He feeds me through an iron grate,

You know, jihad don’t make much sense,
When seen from behind a chain-link fence,
If I ever get out, t’ain’t goin’ back,
Gonna sail to Miami in a Cadillac

Gonna get me a green card, some damn way,
Sing the Star Spangled Banner the live-long day,
And when I say my prayers at night,
Won’t waggle my ass at an obscene height,

Gonna get down on my knees and pray,
Thank you, JESUS, for the USA!

Can somebody please translate that wonderful piece of literature into Arabic and send it to CAIR?
