“Yasser Arafat – I have written your name in my heart,
I have poured the blood of self-sacrifice on your path.
How can I forget my nation’s catastrophe (i.e., establishment of Israel) as I say: Death for the sake of Palestine is good.
All the soldiers stood at attention.
They stood at your grave, saluting you
with the weapon of rebellion loaded,
with bullets which flew and greeted you.
Yasser and the rifle were friends as testified by the trenches and alleys.
The homeland cries out “I’m missing ” and the nation speaks and eulogizes you, Yasser. All the soldiers stood at attention.
You declared the revolution and continued to fight. No, you did not tire.
You did not give up on the principles. The heavier your burden, the more it strengthened you, Yasser. All the soldiers stood at attention.
We swear at your grave, by Allah, not to forget your name and your oath.
We have not abandoned your weapon. Your oath is an obligation which we will carry out, Yasser. All the soldiers stood at attention.”
