Every time
you unlock any door
any where
any one
you are Al-Awda
Any time
you fit a key
into any ignition
of any vehicle
you are Al-Awda
Any time
you write a poem
(or a grocery list)
you are Al-Awda
as the ink shapes
in every language
spell out
what was
is and always will be
Al-Awda
When you read a book
When you fall in love
When you buy a ring
When you leave home
When you return
all Al-Awda
Every time
you flick a switch
turn on a light
Al-Awda
Every time
you close your eyes
and dream
Al-Awda
Every pillow you fluff
every penny you drop
every street you stroll
every garden
every step
even every stumble
All Al-Awda
And now knowing Al-Awda
know that all roads now
lead home
....to Palestine
