Page 281, Ch. 7: Md. Naeem Aziz's Rule over Ashes- July 2024 poem on justice, now taught in Italian upper secondary schools.

When words become weapons against injustice, poetry finds its greatest purpose. Such is the case with "Rule over Ashes," a powerful poem penned by Bangladeshi poet Md. Naeem Aziz in July 2024 as a response to the rising tide of injustice in his home country. Today, less than a year later, that same poem is making waves far beyond Bangladesh-now officially selected for Italy's upper secondary school curriculum by leading educational publisher Sanoma Italia.

Aziz, a multidisciplinary talent from Dhaka-poet, photographer, and engineer-has become a voice for the voiceless, often weaving themes of political struggle, civil courage, and youth resistance into his creative works. In "Rule over Ashes," he pays homage to students who stood against oppressive leadership, emphasizing the real sacrifices they made in the pursuit of justice:

"They sacrificed their lives,
Answering the call.
They accepted martyrdom.
To bring justice for all."

These lines, both raw and resolute, resonate globally in an era where young people continue to stand at the forefront of protest movements-from pro-democracy demonstrations to climate activism.

What makes this poem remarkable is not only its urgent message but its global reception. The inclusion of "Rule over Ashes" in Italy's secondary school curriculum marks a significant moment in cross-cultural education. Italian students are now engaging with themes of justice, resistance, and sacrifice through the lens of a Bangladeshi poet-proof that the language of justice transcends borders.

Accompanying the poem are reflective classroom activities encouraging students to examine historical and modern examples of youth-led activism. They're asked to think critically about questions like: What motivates young people to stand up? What sacrifices are necessary for justice? How can we "light the night" in our own lives?

Aziz writes:

"Justice leads the way,
When darkness falls
We'll light the night,
With patience and hope
We'll set things right."

This isn't just poetic inspiration; it's a civic lesson wrapped in metaphor-a lesson that students in Bangladesh and Italy are now carrying forward.

As the world grapples with complex crises-from political upheaval to cultural silencing-the inclusion of this poem in formal education sends a strong message: student voices matter. And sometimes, the path to global awareness begins with a single, fearless verse.

Md. Naeem Aziz's "Rule over Ashes" is more than a poem-it's a bridge between nations, between generations, and between silence and action.
