WE WILL NOT GO DOWN (Song for Gaza)
(Composed by Michael Heart)
Copyright 2009


A blinding flash of 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
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

*You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools*

But our spirits will not burn along with burned mosques, homes and schools.

Another song is dedicated to Gaza. Yet no real actions are taken by the Arabs to punish the Israelis. Punishing actions must be taken to stop the Israelis from violating more humanity in the blzaing strip. Words, talks (and certainly songs) will not stop the Israelis from demolishing the Palestinian land. Sometimes you must need an opposing force to neutralise a violent force.

So, if forces to stop the Israelis are in action, I hope that in the future no more songs like this will be created because no more humanity is being violated in Gaza or somewhere else……

Setuju pak. Dan yang paling penting tentu Do’a-nya.
Btw, selamat ya pk, dapet domain baru :D

hmm…kita liat aja Rif… kemarin malah udah ngebom lagi tuh.

Sama-sama bagus dunk, bang.
Kalo Iwan Fals bikin lagu khusus tuk Gaza, pasti aku tampilkan juga.
Sing penting: Make peace, no war yak.

Certainly agree with you, kang, that we need no N.A.T.O (no action talk only) on Gaza.
But a song, however humble it is, does much better than those people (in power– and -you-know-who) who pretend not to know, not to hear, not to feel responsible to what happened in Gaza.

kalau boleh tau penyanyinya sapa yah….
