Lyrics by Hussein Al-Barghouty

The moon came up
Above childhood
Hilly childhood
Collects birds and flowers
Under the moon baskets
To run behind her crying
Till I fall on the rocks
This is a confiscated childhood
Once he wrote and xxx
Once imprisoned and xxx
Once he wrote and xxx
Once imprisoned and xxx
Once my life is fake
Inside a encircled city
Guarded
The moon came up
Above childhood
And childhood xxx
It leaned to the beach
It shines in her dreams
A star full of secrets
To stay awake in the gym
XXX
This childhood is confiscated
This is a confiscated childhood
Once he wrote and xxx
Once imprisoned and xxx
Once he wrote and xxx
Once imprisoned and xxx
Once my life is fake
Inside a encircled city
Guarded

A Song for Childhood
