Ana Stjelja: To a Palestinian Child (poem)
I see tears in your eyes
The lost childhood
Scattered houses
Displaced
I feel the pride in your heart
For being who you are
On the land of endless wars
What is your fault?
Your sky is colored in blood
Your silence is broken
By the sound of missiles
Instead of fresh breeze
You smell dust
What is your fault?
I will pray for you
My dear Palestinian child
For your freedom
For your courage
For your mother and father
For your brothers and sisters
For your better future
I hope for a new day to come
To bring the smile back on your
Beautiful face
To hear your laughter
To be happy
To live peacefully in your home
On your land
