Song for Palestine by Nora Roman 12-28-08 Israel is bombing Gaza again.
Another unconscionable attack by Israel on the already strangling slowly oppressed jail that is Gaza...when will we all just say, enough of this outrage!

Oo-oo-ooo – Palestine, Oo-oo-oo-oo Palestine..
They're killing your children again, oh Palestine
My heart aches as I sing, for Palestine

How many more years? How many more tears?
How many more lives? How much pain on all sides?
How does one lose her humanity? How can we accept this insanity?

Oo-oo-ooo – Palestine, Oo-oo-oo-oo Palestine..
They're killing your children again, oh Palestine
My heart aches as I sing, for Palestine

How many more bombs? How many more psalms?
Hate just has no place, in my human race
All people should be free, with justice and liberty

Oo-oo-ooo – Palestine, Oo-oo-oooo, Palestine..
They're killing your children again, oh, Palestine
My heart aches as I sing for Palestine..

I want to have some faith, that you'll be free someday
That the whole world will awake, from the nightmare of today,
And all people will be one, and will live in harmony
When the scattered can come home to Palestine

Oo-oo-ooo, – Palestine, Oo-oo-oo-oo Palestine..
They're killing your children again, oh Palestine
My heart aches as I sing, for Palestine,
My heart breaks… as I sing for Palestine..
