To pose...the problem
✕
Inch' Allah
I saw the East / in its gilt shrine
That has the Moon / for its colours
And I wished I /, in three, four lines,
Could sing its Light/ to the whole World.
But when I Saw/ Jerusalem
There on its rock, like a poppy,
It seemed I heard/ a requiem
When I bent for/ward over it.
Humble chapel, can't you see clear ?
You, who Whisper : Peace in the world,
That all the birds / with their wings hide
Fiery letters: Danger, frontier ?
The path leads straight/ to the fountain
You'd like to fill/ up your bucket,
Stop, Magdalene, /coz for these men
Water means more/ than your body.
Inch' Allah xxx
The olive-tree / mourned its shadow,
Its tender spouse, its good Friend,
That lay on the / rubble below
Prisoner in / enemy Land.
On a Thorn made/ of barbed wire,
The butterfly / glanced at the rose
People are so / brainless they'll try
To chase me, should / I dare to pose..
God of heaven / or God of Hell
You who can ap/ pear at random
Here in this Land/ named Israel ,
There are trembling/ fearful children
Inch'Allah xxxx
The women fall /under the storm
The blood will soon/ be washed away
Out of courage/ is made the way
A woman for / a cobblestone
But, yes, I saw/ Jerusalem
Down on its rock/ like a poppy
I can still hear / this requiem
When I bend for/ward over it
Requiem for / six million souls
That never got/ marble tombstones,
Yet who, despite/ vile sand deserts
Managed to grow/ six.million trees..
