Filistinli sair ve gazeteci Samih el-Kasim’in olum yildonumu ( 19 Agustos 2014 )
Ey yolunu kazarak acan milyonlarin yarasinda,
Ey gulbahcelerini ezen tankla
Geceleri evlerin camini kiran, tarlayi da muzeyi de zevkle yakan
ve sarkilar duzen yangina,
Uzum baglarini bombalayan,
senlik bulbullerini olduren alanlarda
cocuklarin duslerini bombalayan ucaklarla, gokkusagini bozan!
Bu gece koklu atalarin cocuklari derler ki
Rafah'li cocuklar derler ki:
Biz sac orgusunden kilim dokumadik
altin dislerini soktukten sonra
biz degiliz katledilen kadinlarin yuzune tukuren.
Niye mucevherimizi alip bomba veriyorsunuz yerine ?
Niye Arap cocuklarini oksuz koymakta bu denli istekli ?
Yine de sukur;
Aci ve uzuntu buyuttu bizleri:
Savasmaliyiz!
To the one who digs his path through the wounds of millions
To he whose tanks crush all the roses in the garden
Who breaks windows in the night
Who sets fire to a garden and museum and sings of freedom.
Who stomps on songbirds in the public square.
Whose planes drop bombs on childhood’s dream.
Who smashes rainbows in the sky.
Tonight, the children of the impossible roots have an announcement for you,
Tonight, the children of Rafah say:
“We have never woven hair braids into coverlets.
We have never spat on corpses, nor yanked their gold teeth.
So why do you take our jewelry and give us bombs?
Why do you prepare orphanhood for Arab children?
Thank you, a thousand times over!
Our sadness has now grown up and become a man.
And now, we must fight!
