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 — Refaat Alareer Palestinian poet, professor, and resistance writer Martyred on December 6, 2023, in an Israeli airstrike on Gaza, along with several members of his family. He was known for using literature as resistance, and his final poems became symbols of Palestinian steadfastness under siege.
