Mahmoud Darwish
Grew up with me
In this little house of mine
He reminded me to be a dreamer
He told me to look for the stars
He showed me the face of a freedom fighter
Allah yirhamak ya Darwish
May God help you Darwish
As you have helped me
With these words of unattainable slumber
And held together the hands of a solemn voice
Dreamers live to seek
Falasteen loves to live
And life is just another language
Among the stars that look upon the heavens of the sky
And the rubble of the earth
Long live freedom
Long live peace
Long live Falasteen
The dream harboring country
