AN PHAILISTÍN


Leathchéad bliain faoi riail Iosraelaigh,
Scaipeadh 's fann ar na milliúin teaghlaigh,
Brón 's briseadh croí,
Mo bhrón mo Phailistín.

An Phailistín, an Phailistín, mo Phailistín,
Hosni alaikum ya Falastin,
Hosni alaiki ya Falastin.

Lá agus oíche mar a cheile,
Mná ag caoineadh 's paistí ag scréachaíl,
Síon ón F16,
Marú ar gach taobh.

Dhá bhliain fhada de Intifada,
Caitheadh cloch sa Bhruach Thiar 's i nGaza,
Seasta ar pháirc an áir,
Gan brat ná pas le fáil.

An Phailistín, an Phailistín, mo Phailistín,
Hosni alaikum ya Falastin,
Hosni alaiki ya Falastin.

An talamh naofa shiúil an leanbh Íosa,
Fáithe Abrahám 's Maoise,
Mahamad ó mo bhrón,
Scriosta ag Sharon.

Iarúsailéim, dúirt Íosa Críost,
Nach bhfágfaidh cloch ar chloch, is fíor,
Tairngreacht ag teacht chun cinn,
Mo bhrón mo Phailistín.

An Phailistín, an Phailistín, mo Phailistín,
Hosni alaikum ya Falastin,
Hosni alaiki ya Falastin.
MY PALESTINE

50 years under Israeli rule
scattered and destitute the million households
sadness and broken-heartedness
my sorrow, my Palestine.

Palestine, Palestine, my Palestine
I am sad for you, palestinians
I am sad for you, Palestine

Day and night the same,
women keening, children screaming
storm rain from the F16
killing all around

Two long years of Intifada
stones thrown in the West Bank and Gaza
standing on the field of destruction
without cover or escape to be had

Palestine, Palestine, my Palestine
I am sad for you, palestinians
I am sad for you, Palestine

The sacred ground that the baby Jesus walked
the prophets Abraham and Moses,
Muhammad, my sorrow,
destroyed by Sharon

Jerusaleum said Jesus Christ
not a stone on a stone will remain, it's true
a prophecy coming true
my sorrow my Palestine
