A new year has dawned...
We said: Welcome!
Joy has taken its toll on our words
And we began to weave shade
Under the sun's eye
And our land dreams of our arrival
So that we may rest a while
Beneath the cedar tree.
And the sighs may close
Upon our resting place.
Lebanon remains my father...
My dearest father
Life is not sweet except in his embrace
Without him our family
Won’t be at ease.
