To Palestine
A thousand mutilated heavens, The lost glory of ages divine, The remnants of Time’s crumpled tears – Try not to cry, Children of Palestine.

You know Chechnya, sometimes I cry We could have, but we didn’t try To save you from the enemy’s eye You know Chechnya, sometimes I cry
Unwanted, unseen, like a dry fig leaf, I float through the air over glistening stones. Sometimes, I scorch in the burning hot sands, Sometimes, night fills me with chill to the bones.
Vast expanses of red meadows, The broken glasses of a window-pane; Perhaps, somewhere there is my home, Perhaps, sorrow is my second name.

Look around, the world is weeping, Where am I, unaware and sleeping? Entrenched in dungeons I’ve built around me, Which my own eyes are unable to see. It’s my own world that calls for healing, That calls for help, for hope, for feeling.
The sea, blue, broad, and vast, stretched before me, endlessly, As I walked on the bed of sand without a trace of lea. The white waves broke on the shore with a crash, And then they disappeared from the land in a flash.
