Nací en Palestina [English translation]

I have no place,

and I have no country,

nor do I have a homeland.

With my fingers I create fire

and I sing to you with my heart,

my heart strings cry:

I was born in Palestine,

I was born in Palestine.

I have no place,

and I have no country,

nor do I have a homeland.

I have no place

There is no time for me1

And I have no homeland

I make flames with my hands

and crystals with my heart

I play a wounded tune for you

Born in Palestine

Born in Palestine

I have no place

There is no time for me1

And I have no homeland

Born in Palestine

Born in Palestine

My history will never be erased

My history can't be forsaken.

1. a. b. As in ''I don't fit in these times we live in."
