A poem of a Palestinian child...............Don’t cry now Ummi, don’t cry now, rest nowUmmi, sleep, It’s over Ummi, no more pain, no moresuffering, no more grief. I see the fear in your eyes Ummi, thinkingwhat’s going to become of me, Don’t you worry about me though Ummibecause Allah will watch over me. I was going to build you a proper home wherewe would live happily, I was going to take you to Hajj Ummi, whenstanding on my own two feet. Those dreams will stay dreams now, neverbecoming a reality, My heart is breaking apart now Ummi with thethought of you leaving me. O’ my beloved Ummi, what will I do withoutyour company? My world is upside down, I’m in pain! Turmoil!Agony! Our lives mean nothing to them Ummi! Theyhate us passionately! But why does no one stop them Ummi? No onelistens to our plea! Why does no one help us Ummi? Why iseveryone asleep? Don’t they know we live in terror every dayfrom this enemy? I get lost in my thoughts occasionally, I’vebeen thinking a lot lately, I don’t know what we did to them, why do theywant to see us bleed? The day we wait so long for; but it seems thattime has ceased, When will this bloodshed stop? When will welive again in peace? But our blood is not wasted Ummi -rememberfor this we die as Shaheed, They may take our lives Ummi, but our soulsare forever free! So they can beat me, starve me, cut me untilmy body bleeds, My soul will never submit to them, I’m a slave to the Almighty........! ;( Ya Allah save #GAZA
