A Moon Born in Jaffa
Have you not had enough from floating?You, whos floating since years ago
A moon who is born in Jaffa
And got killed in Deir Yassin
Have you not hated the nights yet?
Have you not had enough of watching?
O, Moon, you are just like me
They destroyed us when they signed the treaty
O, Moon, they wrecked our graves
And they disclosed our feelings
They destroyed our hearts and houses
And our rights became a myth
A moon who is born in Jaffa
O, Moon, you are a minaret
A thousand faces for a thousand neighborhoods
You are the
O, Moon, what about me, whos child am I?
O, Moon, express with pride
The birth of light in Gaza
And in Ramallah and Jenin1
O, Moon, get intensely angry
An irreversible intifada
Just like there is one Jaffa
There is one Deir Yassin in your land
O, Moon, I took him to Jaffa
And he [then] took me to Deir Yassin
