Beginning of the END



My People do not despair

The hour of liberation approaching fast

"Road Maps", Road Blocks, "Peace Processes", Blockades, 

Walls, Checkpoints, Prisons, Exile, Siege, Home-Demolition, Uprooting Trees, 
School Destruction, Machine-guns, F16, Drones, Bombs, White-phosphorus ... 
Does not scare us into submission

Swollen Bank Accounts, Casinos, Fat pockets, Fame, Membership into privileged Clubs...

Does not lure us into accepting crumbs

Sticks and Carrots are not for us

Get that into your heads army of Zion

We are the guardians of Palestine


مرابطون إلى يوم الدين


Yes declaring a semi-state

on 11% of historic Palestine

is rather pathetic


It does not relinquish

decades of thirst for justice


It does not satisfy

Generations' longing for freedom


It does not show respect

Rivers of blood of martyrs



It does not heal 

Wounds of millions left disabled




It does not caress

Hearts of babies buried under rubble


It does not bring back home

A nation of exiled


It does not rebuild

Our Biblical villages



It does not fulfill

Our aspiration of liberation


However,

The countdown for the END of "state of Zion"

Only just began






Brothers and sisters on the ground


Ignore collaborators and think "now what?"


You've done your best

You've given so much

You came so far




 
Take a brief respite

 Breathe in and out

Fill your lungs

Get ready for what is to come



The countdown only just began
