| Entrarono dal tetto | They came in through the roof |
| chiusero porte e finestre. | they closed the doors and windows. |
| Le ficcarono in bocca e nelle narici | they stuffed a fistful of sand into her mouth |
| un pugno di sabbia, Fatima. | and her nostrils, Fatima. |
| Con le mani le squarciarono lo stomaco | Their hands ripped her stomach |
| trattenendo il sangue | blood was retained |
| le urinarono sul viso. | they urinated on her face. |
| Fatima prese la mano della statua | Fatima took the statue's hand |
| e delicata sgusciò tra gli alberi e i figli | and walked lightly between the trees and the sleeping |
| che dormivano. | children. |
| Raggiunse il mare | She reached the sea |
| con il suo corpo innalzato al di sopra della morte | her body raised above death. |
