A Ghazal on Collectivity

Monday 21 February 2005.
 
In the black depths of the night, we are one.
At the dawning of the light, we are one.
 
From when our dream becomes realization
This family is our birthright, we are one.
 
Till all becomes pure love and attention
And we reach our promised height, we are one.
 
Now we look like precious jewels in the sun,
With our colours shining bright, we are one.
 
And when the differences between us are gone,
And our colours merge to white, we are one.
 
These days we know the battle’s just begun.
As we join our hands to fight, we are one.
 
And at the end when all the wars are won,
Then together in Her sight, we are one.
