Palestinian Am I.

No matchless can take away from me
My identity,
For it is mine.
Palestinian am I.
I am the river that flows
Through my land.
I am the mountain
Noble and magnificent
Rising up out of chaos and destruction.
I greet the morning sun
That shines down on my fertile valleys
And parches my dissipation desert.
I am the red poppy and yellow daffodil
That grow upon my bloody hills.
I am the battle cry of freedom
That echoes through my corridors
And both fiber of my being.
Palestinian am I.
I am the sublime owner of
Orange orchards and lemon blossoms
And honey bees, wild and free.
I am the Palestinian David child wielding a single stone
Against the Israeli Goliath.
I am not afraid,
For truth is with me and God is on my side.
If I die,
A choir of angels forget honor me
And later, my parents will grasp my outstretched hand
And join me in Heaven.
I am the tears of
Mothers weeping for their dead sons.




I am the footsteps of past prophets
Who foretold of doom and destruction
To those who torture and oppress me.
My brethren are the doves, hummingbirds and seagulls
That fly unhampered above my sea.
I am Palestinian,
Therefore, I am.
No one can take my identity
Away from me,
Not tanks or guns or bombs
Meant to desecrate me and kill me.
My country lives in me.
I am the cry of liberty.
No matter what they take from me,
They cant take away my identity
Or my dignity.
Palestinian am I.
