PA TV for kids: Israeli cities Safed, Tiberias, Acre, Haifa, and Jaffa are "Palestine"
"[Oh bird,] turn to Safed, and then to Tiberias, and send regards to the sea of Acre and Haifa.
Don't forget Nazareth - the Arab fortress, and tell Beit Shean about its people's return.
Oh flying bird, circling around, by Allah, oh traveling [bird], I burn with envy.
My country Palestine is beautiful.
...
Go to Jenin, and bring me [grain] from its valley. Greetings to Nablus, Tulkarem and their soil.
Drink the water of Jaffa's port, don't forget Ramle and Ramallah.
Oh flying bird, circling around, by Allah, oh traveling [bird], I burn with envy.
My country Palestine is beautiful."
