.. And they used to say,
This is my land,
And the calm atmosphere!"

.. And they used to say,
"My land is a piece of heaven,
By God,
If it weren't for the loyalty of my ancestors,
It wouldn't have been divided!"

Until it became a dream
And in the end.

And the people who died
Became great stories
Told by neighbour to neighbour
About a donkey people

With an angry heart
And he was content to drive his nail
Into the back of Lebanon!
