WE WILL NOT GO DOWN (Song for Gaza)
(Composed by Michael Heart) Copyright 2009

A blinding flash of white light
Lit up the sky over Gaza tonight
People running for cover
Not knowing whether they’re dead or alive

They came with their tanks and their planes
With ravaging fiery flames
And nothing remains
Just a voice rising up in the smoky haze

We will not go down
In the night, without a fight
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
But our spirit will never die
We will not go down
In Gaza tonight

Women and children alike
Murdered and massacred night after night
While the so-called leaders of countries afar
Debated on who’s wrong or right

But their powerless words were in vain
And the bombs fell down like acid rain
But through the tears and the blood and the pain
You can still hear that voice through the smoky haze

We will not go down
In the night, without a fight
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
But our spirit will never die
We will not go down
In Gaza tonight

Gaza

The dawn of the new year, be it the Muharram 1430 or January 2009, brought along almost misery to all. Barely a few days into them, we are greeted with the launching of fires from the Israelis to the Palestinians in Gaza. There goes again, another round of attack.
I read in the news about how a mom who herself was injured, asked the paramedic to stop treating her but instead concentrate on saving her children. A mother's love knows no boundry, even on her death bed. Pictures of children killed splashed in the news. These innocent children had their lives abruptly terminated when other children in other parts of the world are happy playing together oblivious to the adult's world. The price of being born a Palestinian?
Will this ever end? Only HE knows as to what lies ahead to these gutsy people. To the Muslim Palestinians, what ever happens, don't let this erode your Iman in HIM. May HE always look after all of you. Let this also be a test to your Muslim brothers and sisters worldwide on what true Iman is all about.
