Beirut... <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />O MY sorrowful city... <br />O MY sweeter beloved City... <br />a great city you are... <br />the greater you are... <br />the begetter of heroes... <br /> <br />they stole the smile from your cheeks... <br />and the freedom from your land... <br /> <br />left you alone... <br />suffering from the depth of your wounds... <br />they left, to get their fun there... <br />there in another cities... <br />left you alone... <br />alone only with you fires and pains... <br />putter around there... <br />there in another places... <br />as a pariahs strangers... <br />just only to get their fun... <br /> <br />but... <br />you are the greater... <br />you are steadfast... <br />the firm... <br />the resolute... <br />and the tolerant... <br /> <br />here you are... <br />as we all knew you and know you... <br />taking back your health... <br />restoring to health again.. <br />as always... <br />as we knew you... <br /> <br />O Beirut... <br />never you will be down... <br />never... <br />never... <br />because of the nobility, which you are... <br />because of the heroes which you created... <br /> <br />here you are again.. <br />an open city to all through a closed Ocean... <br />sweet city through your pure heart... <br /> <br />Receiving a life... <br />opening your wings... <br />binding up your wounds... <br /> <br />O Beirut... <br />O MY sweeter beloved City... <br />in the heart... <br />in the mid of our hearts... <br />so deep inside our hearts always you are... <br /> <br />by: hazem02<br /><br />hazem al jaber<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/beirut/
