Gaza poet Hanin Ahed Al-Hato, interviewed at a venue of the Return March, sang a song she wrote about Jerusalem. The song includes lines such as "Let those filthy people plan the destruction," "Oh despicable Trump, you have no conscience," and "Whoever tries to attack you - woe unto him!" Al-Hato was filmed singing her song by the Palestinian Al-Hadath newspaper, and the footage was posted on the Internet on April 25.

 

Following is a transcript:

Hanin Ahed Al-Hato: My name is Hanin Ahed Al-Hato. I will sing a song about Jerusalem. The lyrics and music are mine. It conveys my message as a Palestinian.

"Oh free Jerusalem, it does not matter what Trump says. Let those filthy people plan for destruction. Oh free Jerusalem, it does not matter what Trump says. Let those filthy people plan for destruction.

Oh Jerusalem, you are ours, and we will not settle for anything else. Oh Jerusalem, you are ours, and we will not settle for anything else. And whoever tries to attack you – woe unto him!

Oh free Jerusalem, it does not matter what Trump says. Let those filthy people plan for destruction.

Oh despicable Trump, you have no conscience. Oh despicable Trump, you have no conscience. By Allah, what you want will not happen, and your plans are impossible.

Oh free Jerusalem, it does not matter what Trump says. Let those filthy people plan for destruction. Oh free Jerusalem, it does not matter what Trump says. Let those filthy people plan for destruction.

Oh Arabs, why are you in a slumber? Why do you encourage Trump? Oh Arabs, why are you in a slumber? Why do you encourage Trump? Oh Muslims, shame on you for letting Jerusalem bleed."
