SONG FOR A PALESTINIAN CHILD Print E-mail
Tuesday, 03 February 2009 01:33

 I am a Palestinian child. I am a Palestinian child.

 People think, I am meek and mild.
 I  was  born in the midst of fire,
 Coffin on the body is my attire;
 I can face everything, dark and dire,
 The time fails to sink me in its mire.
 
I am a Palestinian child. I am a Palestinian child.
 People think, I am meek and mild.
 Always ready for  bullets is my chest,
 The bombs can never dampen my zest;
 My blood is meant for my country’s best,
 Only in the grave, I shall take my rest.
 
I am a Palestinian child. I am a Palestinian child
 People think, I am meek and mild.
 I aspire  for  peace , have love for  all,
 I want to demolish the religion’s wall;
 When the world is  weeping on my fall,
 I must  also try to rise  high and tall .
 
I am a Palestinian child. I am a Palestinian child
 People think, I am meek and mild.
 Playing with death, is my ordinary game,
 For me , earth and sky are all the same;
 I am a violent  storm, no power can tame,
 My enemy will suffer a lasting shame.
 
I am a Palestinian child. I am a Palestinian child .
 People think, I am meek and mild.
 Desire for freedom makes me wild,
 I am a Palestinian child. I am a Palestinian child
