We are not numbers, we are the stars in the dark sky

Poet Ahmed Miqdad is from Gaza city of Palestine. He is teacher and a poet and has published three poetic books and a short novel. His goal is to make the people around the world aware of Palestinian cause through his words.
We are not numbers
We are not numbers,
We are the stars
In the dark sky,
That lead to the straight path.
We are not numbers,
We are the moon
During the bleak nights
That lights the dark world.
We are not numbers,
We are the olive tree
That lives in the barren dessert
Which gives light and fire
To burn the oppressors.
We are not numbers,
We are the Kuffeyia
Which decorates the shoulders
Of rebels and patriots.
We are not numbers,
We are the martyrs
Who irrigate land with blood!
To liberate the stolen land.
We are not numbers,
We are justice
To the oppressed
In the time of prejudice.
We are not numbers,
We are the curse
That chases the occupiers
Who have settled Palestine!
We are not number,
But we are the difficult number
That none can divide or subtract.
We are Palestine.
(Poem was written in 2018)
