Do you think that with this you erased my identity, my history, and my beliefs?

Your tries are useless – there’s no death for a rebel.

Sabra and Shatila

 

The following is a longer excerpt of the song cited on a sign carried by one of the children:

“Do you think that you, when you burned me,

Danced like a devil on my body, and let the winds scatter me [...]

Do you think that with this you erased my identity,

My history, and my beliefs?

Your tries are useless – there’s no death for a rebel.”
