Palestine Lyrics - Singles - Peter Liam Holcross

The birds have been scattered from their nest out of season 

The sheep have been driven from their fold without a reason 

Some children have never seen their home; 

Who will free them? 

The sun still shines the same upon the land 

The mountains and the hills and every man 

And yet there is the stain of oppression in the Land. 

PALESTINE ... you are deep within the heart 

Of all the children of your land 

Whose hopes in you are chained: 

PALESTINE ... like the fire that never dies 

'Til freedom reigns beneath your skies 

Faithful we will remain. 

The sacred dove of peace our greatest possession 

Is bleeding in the streets throughout the nation 

And lying at the feet of occupation. 

For those without a home, the memory grows more bitter 

With each passing day and every freezing winter 

With each passing day and every freezing winter.
