BOOKS OF RAMADHAN ~ THE SECOND TEN DAYS OF MAGNIFICENT MONTH ~ WE WON'T GO DOWN IN GAZA TONITE ~



I'm speechless ev'ry time Palestine issues are brought up.
Full of shame. Too embarrassed of myself. Helpless.
B'coz I just know I can't do nothing other than praying and donating. That's it. Nothing else.
Feeling so frail and fragile....
I won't share my pray here. I will keep it to myself, in my heart.
With all the tears I just can't hold....



A blinding flashy of white light
Lit up the sky over Gaza tonight
People running for cover, not knowing whether they're dead or alive

They came with their tanks and their planes
With ravaging fiery flames
And nothing remains, just a voice rising up in the smoky haze

We will not go down, in the night, without a fight
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
But our spirit will never die
We will not go down, in Gaza tonight

Women and children alike
Murdered and massacred night after night
While the so-called leaders of countries afar
Debated on who's wrong or right

But their powerless words were in vain
And the bombs fell down like acid rain
But through the tears and the blood and the pain
You can still hear that voice through the smoky haze

We will not go down, in the night, without a fight
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
But our spirit will never die
We will not go down, in Gaza tonight
