Lyrics

[Verse 1]
To the land that waits for me,
I have never truly left.
Though I walk on distant streets,
You still live beneath my chest.
They can take me far from you,
They can steal the hills and skies,
But your soil is in my breath,
And your name behind my eyes.
[Chorus]
Palestine, I call you still,
Through borders, through silence, through iron will.
They can fence the earth and close the sea,
But they can’t unroot what lives in me.
I’ll come to you, if not today—
Then in the children who find their way.
To the land that waits for me,
I am coming home. Just wait and see.
[Verse 2]
You are the thyme in every plate,
The call to prayer, the garden gate.
You are the stories grandfathers told,
Of love that’s gone, but never cold.
They don’t see you in the news,
Only rubble, smoke, and loss.
But I see your sun, your olive trees,
Your gentle strength beneath the cross.
[Chorus]
Palestine, I call you still,
Through the silence, the tears, the unbroken will.
They can rename streets, erase our song,
But they can’t pretend we don’t belong.
I’ll come to you, if not today—
Then in the seeds my hands will lay.
To the land that waits for me,
I am coming home. Just wait and see.
[Bridge]
Let them say it’s over—
We know the truth runs deeper.
Every stone, every fig, every breeze
Whispers: “You are mine.”
[Final Chorus]
Palestine, I call you still,
And I always will, I always will.
They can bury dreams, they can block the gate—
But love like this will never wait.
To the land that waits for me,
I am yours.
And you are free.
