LAM YABQA ELLA AL-HAJAR (The Stone is All That's Left)




Change Text Size a- | A+


 

They fire more bullets ... penetrating the body of another child

Bleeding, from the leg, from the liver ... The body is drained by a rain of metal

His eyes seek a star in the sky ... falling in space, seeking a new home

Perhaps the beauty of that shooting star will comfort him ... but the black clouds blocked his vision

His Soul held onto his body or whatever is left of it ... And the Angels wail, begging for forgiveness

The child's head smashed on the rocks ... And bitter blood spilling

Mixed with tears of Agony ... as it triquels down the cheek of the moon

 


The Wind thickens and the Spirit holds on ... and still in his hand a stone

When he released the stone ... the moment it touched the earth, it exploded.

The Earth trembled as his body was laid on a triangle of red blood

The Black clouds from above ... and the green lawn from beneath

Then butterflies from Heaven ... furnished a white bed, embraced with flowers

Surrounded by the Angels, bowing ... and their faces covered with dirt

 


Damn the Leaders of War ... Damn the leaders of the world

Whenever we ask them about destruction ... they say: "we do this for your protection"

They have protected nothing but Death and Disgrace ... Day and Night, protecting their propaganda of lies

They say that they stand for Peace ... but in the night, they fire more bullets
