Lagu tentang Dukungan bagi Palestina

1. We Will Not Go Down - Michael Heart

Lagu ini diciptakan pemusik asal Amerika Serikat, Michael Heart pada 2009. Karyanya ini berisikan dukungan kepada warga Palestina, terutama yang berada di Gaza.

Lirik We Will Not Go Down:

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

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 the night, without a fight
We will not go down
In Gaza tonight

2. Palestine Will Be Free - Maher Zain

Lagu ini diciptakan Maher Zain pada 2009. Tak berbeda jauh dengan judulnya, lagu ini berisikan dukungan serta harapan bagi warga Palestina untuk segera bebas dan hidup dalam kedamaian.

Lirik Palestine Will Be Free:

Every day we tell each other
That this day will be the last
And tomorrow we all can go home free
And all this will finally end
Palestine tomorrow will be free [x2]

No mother no father to wipe away my tears
That’s why I won’t cry
I feel scared but I won’t show my fears
I keep my head high
Deep in my heart I never have any doubt that
Palestine tomorrow will be free [x2]

I saw those rockets and bombs shining in the sky
Like drops of rain in the sun’s light
Taking away everyone dear to my heart
Destroying my dreams in a blink of an eye
What happened to our human rights?
What happened to the sanctity of life?
And all those other lies?

I know that I’m only a child
But is your conscience still alive
Ooooooh ... Yeaaah
I will caress with my bare hands
Every precious grain of sand
Every stone and every tree
Cause no matter what they do
They can never hurt you
Cause your soul will always be Free

Palestine tomorrow will be free [x2]

3. Palestina - Iwan Fals

Musisi legendaris Tanah Air, Iwan Fals juga pernah membuat sebuah lagu tentang Palestina. Lirik-liriknya yang tajam menunjukan perasaan sedih dan marah terhadap serangan militer brutal yang kerap dilakukan Israel terhadap Palestina.

Lirik Palestina:

Palestina, bukan soal agama
Ini hanya soal tanah semata, siapa yang tak ingin merdeka.

Anak suci pulang, dipelukan orang tuanya
Wajahnya masih tersenyum, dibawa lari orang-orang di jalanan

Gaza Gaza Gaza... Panggung setan paling tega.
Gaza Gaza Gaza... Tank dilempar batu, perempuan kecil pukul serdadu
Jet tempur diketapel dan bom-bom hari-hari

Orang pamer kuasa, atas nama apa saja
Intifadah dengan polosnya menasehati dunia
Cukong-cukong senjata pesta-pesta, tari perut gahwa dan shisha
Di bawah purnama padang pasir yang anyir

Palestina... Saudaraku di Gaza
Bertanya pada bangsa bangsa yang bego, tak ada guna percuma saja
Oh dunia Ini air mata
Sejak zaman nabi nabi hingga kini
Bagai air suci yang memancar tak henti-henti.
Oh dunia ini airmata
Sejak zaman sebelum Adam diusir surga
Sebagai persembahan sejarah umat manusia yang lemah

Palestina, bisa jadi soal agama
Hanya karena tanah semata, bagi yang ingin merdeka

4. Long Live Palestine - Lowkey

Musisi Kareem Dennis atau biasa dikenal Lowkey pernah membuat sebuah lagu untuk dukungan kepada Palestina. Bersama karyanya ini, ia berharap dunia internasional akan tergerak untuk mendukung kebebasan Palestina.

Lirik Long Love Palestine:

This is for Palestine, Ramallah, West Bank, Gaza
This is for the child that is searching for the answer
I wish I could take your tears and replace them with laughter
Long live Palestine, long live Gaza
Palestine, Ramallah, West Bank, Gaza
This is for the child that is searching for an answer
I wish I could take your tears and replace them with laughter
Long live Palestine, long live Gaza

While we listen to tunes, made by ignorant fools
Israel blocked the UN from delivering food
They'll bring in the troops and you won't even glimpse at the news
They make money off the products that we are quick to consume
It's not simply a question of differing views
Forget emotions, this is fact, what I spit is the truth
Makes no difference if you're a Christian or if you're a Jew
They are just people living in different conditions to you
They still die when you bomb their schools, mosques and hospitals
It is not because of rockets, please god can you stop it all
I'm not related to the strangers on the TV
But I relate because those strangers could have been me
Words can never ever explain the raw tragedy
It's not a war they're just murdering more rapidly
We are automatically supporting pure savagery
Imagine how you'd feel if this was your family

Free my people, long live Palestine
We will never let you go
Free Free Palestine, Free Free Palestine (4x)

5. Forever Palestine - Sami Yusuf

Forever Palestine dirilis Sami Yusuf sekitar tahun 2009. Sebagaimana musisi lain, ia mendedikasikan lagunya sebagai bentuk dukungan terhadap Palestina.

Lirik Forever Palestine:

Mother don’t cry for me I am heading off to war
God almighty is my armour and sword
Palestine, Forever Palestine

Children being killed for throwing stones in the sky
They say to their parents don’t worry, God is on our side
Palestine, Forever Palestine
Mother don’t worry when they come for us at night
Surely they’ll be sorry when God puts them right
Tell me why they’re doing what was done to them
Don’t they know that God is with the oppressed and needy
Perished were the nations that ruled through tyranny
Palestine, Forever Palestine

Children of Palestine are fighting for their lives
They say to their parents we know that Palestine is our right
They to say to their parents we’ll fight for what is right
They say not to worry God is on our side
They say we’ll die for Palestine
Palestine, Forever Palestine
