In Palestine, good and evil assemble
In a stark contrast
Staring eye to eye
Epitome of enigma
In Palestine, heroism meets cowardice heads on
Standing side by side in broad daylight
No concealment, no pretense
In Palestine, kindness puts bitterness to rest
Mercy descends, flakes of heaven, embraces the world
Malice melts away, hiding in rat-holes
“Never forget and never forgive” mantra is brought to shame
In Palestine, walls all around
Yet, sitting on the fence is no longer an option
Hearts connects swimming in ether, divine
In Palestine, prophets, saints and angels graduate
Words of wisdom cascade abundant
Yet, of sorcery, fiends and devils froth into being
In Palestine, hatred is a chain, millennia old
Pulling beasts to Hell of depravity
Yet, love dances with poise and grace
In Palestine, meadows of endurance blossom in parched soil
Painting the horizon, Arcadia masterpiece
Tears of elation and whispers of devotion flow
In Palestine, tenderness is a melody, hummed by Gaza shores
Filling hearts with beauty and joy
Healing wounded girls and boys
In Palestine, love is a rainbow, shimmering above
Lifting to Heavenly splendour
Anguished pained nostalgic souls
In Palestine, faith is an ocean
Patience is a globe
Hope is a sky of infinite scope
In Palestine, sinners are repentant
The pious clothed in modesty
Lovers are the guides
In Palestine, brothers cherished
Sisters crowned queens,
Children adored, fathers revered
Under mothers’ feet Paradise laid down
In Palestine, the hungry is fed, the prisoner is embraced
The lost will be guided and truth-seeker will find
