‏سوف نعود إلى جنتنا

Our shared roots are entangled deeply beneath the land that is so fought over. You can attempt to dig up the grounds, ethnically cleanse us, or commit genocide, however you will never be able to completely erase every root ingrained within our land.

We'll return to our homeland.

Since the West's arrival, division, colonization, war, and destruction have plagued our beloved Levant. Despite the miles separating us from our roots, hope unites us. The memories of our beautiful homes bind us, driving us to fight for one another's freedom and to protect innocent lives from murder and destruction.

In the Levant, the pursuit of liberation is a poignant call for justice and self-determination, echoing through the ages. It is a quest to break free from the oppression, occupation, and inequality, seeking to craft a brighter, more inclusive future for the people of this region.

Syria, Palestine, Jordan and Lebanon, I crave to feel free beneath the warmth of your sun. I strive to rewrite the narrative, yearning for a world where we can bask in the freedom and embrace the promises of peace and prosperity
