Poem for Lebanon

This is a poem by Raja Chemayel

Who polluted my sea??
Who destroyed my economy?
Who invaded my country??
Who dislodged a quarter of me?

Why should Hezbollah rebuild
what others have destroyed?
Why should Hezbollah compensate
the victims of another aggressor?

Why should Hezbollah stop getting his weapons?
Is the war, perhaps, over?
Is the aggressor also disarming?
Is the occupation over?
Is Israel finally dismantled?

Why would the planned German-UN-Troops
Control Syrian-Lebanese borders?
Is Germany perhaps encircling the Lebanon ?

Why do they blame Hezbollah
for receiving its weapons from Iran ?
Should Portugal replace Iran ?
Or maybe, Colonel Oliver North
feels outshined and jealous ?

Let Hezbollah pay compensation to all Israelis
who were damaged…… but only to those,
who are actually not occupying any Palestinian-soil… !

Let Israel pay compensation to all the Lebanese
who were damaged……but only to those Lebanese,
who are not occupying anyone else’s soil… !

Saad Hariri and Jacques Chirac and the UN
ought to investigate ,also the massacre of Qana
not only Rafik Hariri’s assassination

Wallid Joumblat should not worry about
the Hezbollah’s victory in the Lebanon
but rather worry about the defeat
of those Druze fighting alongside Israel !!

Because,
the Hezbollah’s victory in the Lebanon
is an all-Lebanese-victory first and foremost.



Who polluted my Sea ?
Who polluted my history ?
Who polluted my destiny?
