Please Stop!

Stop! and look at that little child

Who lives in that raped land

Who lost the father and the guide

Who lost the mother and being by her side.

Stop! and break the silence

By your voises and your goodness

Stop! and bring the happiness

For the palestinians who live in sadness

We rise at the sounds of our mothers

They rise at the sounds of bombs

Fear is  part of every breath they take

Panic is  part of every action they make.

All this! and our lips are still sealled!

Our consciousness is not yet penetrated!

Our eyes are still closed!

So it is time to refuse being treated as cattle

It is our battle.
