Lyrics
When dusk descends on a crimson sky, when truth reveals a million lies, from the ashes there will rise a phoenix once was Palestine. Take their lives, take their homes, steal their land, break their bones, kill those babies' silent screams, no more children's broken dreams, no more mothers, no more fathers, where's our Palestinian brothers? Just go on, you're raging, ravage, it's just your collateral damage, never look back, just part of your plan. Selling your souls, the world's gone cold, when dusk descends on a crimson sky, when truth reveals a million lies, from the ashes there will rise a phoenix once was Palestine. Occupied and demonized, human freedom, you deny, then our people, you decide, starve and torture, watch with pride, taking over colonized, stand upon that broken child, where's your conscience, where's your honor, cowardly you run for cover, underneath your Kevlar armor, from a child with sticks and rubber, in his heart he holds a fire, all he knows is this is Gaza, home he loves, can't run away, while genocide is taking place, when dusk descends on a crimson sky, when truth reveals a million lies, from the ashes there will rise a phoenix once was Palestine. Normalize, hypothesize, but you're the victim every time, build your walls with rock and stone, hide behind your iron dome, make your victims terrorists, sell your lies so ludicrous, leadership their ignorance, all yellow bellies impotent, but there's no peace but what justice brings, and freedom is so imminent, when dusk descends on a crimson sky, when truth reveals a million lies, from the ashes there will rise a phoenix once was Palestine. Yakin doa didengar, harapan kekal bersinar, relboh hati dengan takdir, meniti hari yang getir, semua kan pasti berakhir, ujung yang indah menanti, kala senja biaskirmizi, kala terserlah syurta rusta, dari debukan kembangi, nafas kebebasan Tunya. حضنني على أرض الصندا، لآخر نقطة دم في روح، لآخر نفس فيا، حضننا صنديل. هل قد بتحبي فلسطين؟ آه هل قد، أطفال فلسطين ما بتخلوش عنها، زي ما حكت لي أمه نية، أنا دم فلسطين، أنا دم فلسطين. حاب بحكي لكم، راحت علينا السنة الدراسية في قطاع غزة، استفدنا أعلى الدراجات في الصبر، والقوة، والتحدي، والثبات، أننا نلنا شرف الدفاع عن الوطن، حسب الله ونعم الوكيل.
