Children of Gaza

Bombs drop on Gaza

Full of pride are its children

Without mercy blood is shed in Gaza

Full of pride are its people

Sisters. and children die,

Full of pride are its people

Homes and hospitals demolished,

Full of pride are its people

They only ask for one thing:

Freedom!

Where are you leaders of the world?

Alas !

Oh Ye:

Presidents,

Prime Ministers and

Wealthy investors.

A handful of innocent children disappoints you!

They are:

Stronger than you!

Braver than you!

Better than you!

Prouder than you!

They burry their parents bare handed.

They walk with their

Heads held high

Not led but challenging Imperialism and injustice

They look at the sun with their naked eyes;

They absorb its brightness and heat;

And don’t cry

And if they cry,

They cry about YOUR situation!

Oh ye

Unjust leaders of the world!

A shoe of a Gaza kid is purer than your:

Wealth;

Towers;

Oil;

And so-called democratic Governments.

You have no humanity!

Yes, mothers, fathers and children are dying

Stop that Hippocracy

A thousand curse on the best of you!

Everyday passes you, disappoint innocent children!

Who are you?

O ye,

Unjust rulers of the world

I am sick of you!

Your people are sick of you!

You are fake!

You falsely protest;

But behind closed door you consent to genocide.

Who are you?

Don’t you see!

Wake up !

You don’t just disappoint me,

you diappoint children who refuse to succumb to tyranny and injustice.

An people that chooses death over being captive and imprisoned.

World leaders,

I’m tired!

75 years of injustice is too much!

The children of Gaza are not crying about their situation but they are crying about your

Betrayal to humanity!

Betrayal to conscience!

Gaza children are full of pride to ask you for help.

They do not cry for themselves but they grieve:

What’s called Democracy;

Humanity;

Friendship and your so-called:

Compassion.
