I Am character

I Am Malaak Abed Atieh (A Stone in My Hand)
I am Malaak Abed Atieh
I wonder where my father is
I hear the Abdo bird
I see Israeli soldiers
I want peace between the Palestinians and the Israelis
I am Malaak Abed Atieh

I pretend I can fly to my fathers prison cell
I feel ugly
I touch my hair that I don't like
I worry about my brother
I cry whenever my mom tells me my father is dead
I am Malaak Abed Atieh

I understand I have to stay patient
I say my prayers
I dream about my father coming back
I try accept the fact that he is gone
I hope my brother doesn't get killed like my father did
I am Malaak Abed Atieh
