Palestine Mother
My child and her first smile
My child held gently in my arms
My child my love my life
My starlight in my palms
A monster comes along
There is no name to his face
He cares nothing for us my child
There is no name to his face
He holds our hands and smiles
It is okay my child
I say
Nothing to fear
We are no longer living
No longer living here
My child and her first smile
My child held gently in my arms
My child my love my life
My starlight in my palms
Heaven on Earth
You will be reborn
In the Sunlight of hope
We walk the rainbow bridge
No longer do we mourn
My child and her first smile
My child held gently in my arms
My child my love my life
My starlight in my palms
