in a world where courage knows its bounds
ive always sensed where mine confounds
i speak my mind, my questions free
yet beneath the surface, a timid sea
in the classroom's bustling, vibrant crowd
i wear a brave mask, though fear's allowed
my goals revolve around those near
my family, my siblings, all i hold dear
but, oh, the beauty of the palestinian soul
enduring oppression, an unbroken role
for years and years, you've stood SO TALL
facing adversity that could make GIANTS FALL
amidst the bloodstained, tear-soaked ground
your resilience, a wondrous, stunning sound
oh, how beautiful, palestinians, you are
in the face of suffering, a shining star
may your struggles cease, your sorrows mend
with the highest form of heaven, i extend
my sympathy and love, in prayers, they soar
for you, beautiful souls, for evermore
