Humanity now is Palestinian
What Palestinians have seen is a worldwide scene
I think you agree
Fasten your belts, hold on tight
The ride is about to go berserk
Bellies of usurers wobble on screens
Stuffed, wealth vulgar obscene
Money-lenders smirk as the world goes down
Financial collapse, foreclosure, disease, lock-down
Baby-killers run amok, invincible they feel, with egos grandiose
Splashing purity’s blood on Lucifer’s shrine
Their soul-void eyes, lifeless blackholes
Raging, flames of fury and hate
Against God Almighty, declared unholy war
Against Life itself, waged bombastic strike
Sucked life out of Life, starved the poor
Made sick the frail and killed the pure
This is the calm before the storm
Darkness to descend, followed by dawn
No ifs, no buts, and no delay
Gather your crumbling self, run outside
Rejoice in a mountain, embrace the land
Kiss the soil beneath your feet
Sow a seed, inhale a rose, hug a tree
Water with your soulful tears
Sprinkle with your powdered heart
A dash of agony, if need be
Let those who care, plant some more
Let those who have, share with those in need
Silence your words, speak with deeds
Bake a loaf, the hungry feed
A sip of water give to the parched
Be it your kin, neighbour or foe
It is time now, to be a Palestinian
Creator of Life is wide awake, I promise you
All loving, all patient, also all aware
Divine Intervention, a mighty blow
Awaits the vain who take life in vain
Enemies of life, plucked, once and for all
The wealth they’ve amassed burned to ashes
Kingdom of gloom perished to doom
Keep your calm, remain in sync
Contain your fear, tend love serene
The One in Charge won’t let you down
Light will shine on Earth anew
Flowers will smile, Meadows will sway
Butterflies will dance, children will play
