Palestinian Poetry

In this certain post, i uploaded a video of a talented little girl attempting poetry, however, she does not discuss love or friendship, only sorrow to the current situation in her home land. This comes to show the reader how passionate Palestinians are about their rights for freedom, also expressing sorrow at the same time.
This is what she had to say:
Palestinian, My name is Palestinian I've carved my name in all of the arenas The letters of my name follow me, live with me and nourish me It bursts fire into my soul and is pumped into my veins The caves of the mountains of fire (reference to the cities of Palestine) know me and acknowledge me I exerted the greatest energy and I said to my People "Be." Salahudin, from the deep depth of my soul calls me And all of my Nationalism for revenge and liberation calls to me And my banners that have been folded, are on the hills of 'Hiteen (The area where the little girls come from) And the cry of the Minister of Masjid Al-Aqsa calls to us, "Save me," "And the thousands of prisoners, and captives." It calls the greater nation and the millions of arabs"To Jersusalem, to the holy place," "To a battle that crushes injustice" and raises in the skies of the world the flags of Palestine." And my word continues to roar, "Palestinian, Palestinian, Palestinian."
