A blinding flash o' white light
Lit up the sky over Gaza tonight.
People running for cover,
Not knowing, whether they’re dead or alive.
They came with their tanks and their planes,
With ravaging fiery flames
And nothing remains,
Just a voice rising up in the smoky haze.
We will not go down
In the night without a fight!
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools,
But our spirit will never die!
We will not go down
In Gaza tonight!
Women and children alike,
Murdered and massacred night after night,
While the so-called leaders of countries afar
Debated on who’s wrong or right.
But their powerless words were in vain
And the bombs fell down like acid rain,
But through the tears and the blood and the pain
You can still hear that voice through the smoky haze.
We will not go down...
