Jerusalem My Other Side of Palestine
This Poem is Dedicated to The Arab Jews Palestinians in Jerusalem, The Arab Muslims Palestinians, The Arab Christians Palestinians all that ones that have been disposed of their homes, their lands, the ones in jail, the ones exiled, the ones fighting in Israel courts to keep their homes and businesses, the ones harassed by the Settlers and the Occupying Forces, for the ones that died waiting for liberation, the ones that died fighting the occupation, for the Martys, and for the ones that have not yet born.
The Great City inside the Mother Land,
Stand with patience…………. in silence,
With pain ………. with tears in her eyes,
Oh! Jerusalem my other half of Palestine.
The land of the Prophets, land of prayers,
Land of peace, Land of the brave, that know no fear,
That is my City,……. My Holy Land
Oh! Jerusalem my other half of Palestine.
The tears of the sons have salted your Sea
The blood of the martyrs are part of your soil
Their prayers are mixed with their cries
Oh! Jerusalem my other half of Palestine
Proud Jerusalem………….. standing time…
Your History is written with the reddest blood,
Your dreams and my dreams are all but one
Oh! Jerusalem my other half of Palestine
Elegant Dress you have for tonight,
Full of colors, to shine! my dreams of tomorrow,
Dreams of Freedom..for peace to come,
Oh! Jerusalem my other half of Palestine.
The Warrior is blowing, the trumpet of triumph
Victory is coming, …One day at the time,
Stand with patience……on the green line
Oh! Jerusalem my other half of Palestine
