about

Refaat Alareer was assassinated on December 6 by the Israeli army. The only weapon in his Gaza apartment was an EXPO marker. If the Israeli soldiers were to raid his house, he said, he would throw it at them, while crying, β€œWe are helpless.”In 2011, the children of Gaza flew 12,350 kites simultaneously and were recognised in the Guinness Book of Records.
This release is for the sole purpose of raising funds for the Palestinian people who are suffering from genocidal actions by Israel with the approval, by way of inaction and thus tacit agreement, of a number of leaders of Governments in the West.

lyrics

If I must die,
you must live
to tell my story
to sell my things
to buy a piece of cloth
and some strings,
(make it white with a long tail)
so that a child, somewhere in Gaza
while looking heaven in the eye
awaiting his dad who left in a blaze
and bid no-one farewell
not even to his flesh
not even to himself -
sees the kite, my kite you made,
flying up above
and thinks for a moment an angel is there
bringing back love
If I must die
let it bring hope
let it be a tale.
by Raafat Alareer
