A Song of Kurdish Children in Diyarbekir (Free verse) by kawakurdi
Let me sing, let me sing
Grey wolves, let me sing
My heart is full of songs
Like a cloud full of rain
Let me rain, let me sing
Grey wolves, let me sing!
Let me sing, let me sing
Prehistoric monsters, let me sing
My soul is full of songs
Like a bursting stream
Let me flood, let me sing
Prehistoric monsters, let me sing
Let me sing of love and liberty
My name, my identity,
My homeland, my mountain,
The daffodils in my garden,
My mother, my new-born sister,
My rabbit, my little dog
And my guerrilla dad
Let me sing, let me sing
Grey wolves let me sing
Here they come, here they come
Grey wolves full of hatred
They martyr my father
And kill my baby-brother.
Let me sing, let me sing
Grey wolves, let me sing
I do sing, I do sing
Grey wolves, I do sing.
