A rose amongst cities

Will they agree on peace in Annapolis?

 

 

لأجلك يا بهية المساكن يا زهرة المدائن

 

يا قدس يا قدس يا مدينة الصلاة

 

عيوننا إليك ترحل كل يوم

 

تدور في أروقة المعابد

 

تعانق الكنائس القديمة

 

و تمسح الحزن عن المساجد

 

يا ليلة الأسراء يا درب من مروا إلى السماء

 

عيوننا إليك ترحل كل يوم و انني أصلي

 

*******

 

الطفل في المغارة و أمه مريم وجهان يبكيان

 

لأجل من تشردوا

 

لأجل أطفال بلا منازل

 

لأجل من دافع و أستشهد في المداخل

 

و استشهد السلام في وطن السلام

 

و سقط العدل على المداخل

 

وحين هوت مدينة القدس

 

تراجع الحب و في قلوب الدنيا استوطنت الحرب

 

******

 

الطفل في المغارة و أمه مريم وجهان يبكيان و أنني أصلي

 

الغضب الساطع آتٍ و أنا كلي ايمان

 

الغضب الساطع آتٍ سأمر على الأحزان

 

من كل طريق آتٍ بجياد الرهبة آتٍ

 

و كوجه الله الغامر آتٍ آتٍ آتٍ

 

*******

 

لن يقفل باب مدينتنا فأنا ذاهبة لأصلي

 

سأدق غلى الأبواب و سأفتحها الأبواب

 

و ستغسل يا نهر الأردن وجهي بمياه قدسية

 

و ستمحو يا نهر الأردن أثار القدم الهمجية

 

الغضب الساطع آتٍ بجياد الرهبة آتٍ

 

و سيهزم وجه القوة

 

البيت لنا و القدس لنا

 

و بأيدينا سنعيد بهاء القدس

 

بايدينا للقدس سلام آتٍ

If I'm in the mood I may try to translate.

^^ Too late :D

For you O city of wonderful dwellings

O rose amongst cities

O Jerusalem, O Jerusalem O city of prayer

 

Our eyes towards you, travel each day

Orbit the halls of (your) temples

 

Hugs the old churches and wipes the sadness of the mosques

O night of Israa, O route of those that passed to the sky

Our eyes towards you travel each day, and I pray

 

***********************

 

 

The child in the cave and his mother Mary, two faces that are crying

For those that fled and were made homeless

For the children with no homes

For those that fought and were martyred on the entrances (to the town)

Peace was martyred in the home of peace

And justice fell in the doorways

When Jerusalem was conquered

Love receded and, in the hearts of the world, war resided

 

*****************

 

The child in the cave and his mother Mary, two faces that are crying...

 

Blazing anger is coming and I’m full of belief

Blazing anger is coming and I’ll bypass grief

 

From all sides, it’s coming

On (on top of) the horses of terror, it’s coming

And like the overshadowing face of god, it’s coming coming coming!

 

***************************

 

The door of our city is not going to be closed, for I am going (there) to pray

I’ll knock on the doors and, I will open the doors

And you O Jordan River, will wash my face with Jerusalem waters

And you’ll wipe O Jordan River, the traces of the oppressive feet

 

Blazing anger is coming

On (on top of) the horses of terror, it’s coming

And the face of dominance will be defeated

The house - Beet El-Aqsa - is ours and Jerusalem is ours

And with our own hands we shall return the glory of Jerusalem

With our own hands Jerusalem’s peace is coming
