You know, when I first saw you, Your dark eyes locked on mine, like the gates of Damascus One smile is all it takes, and in my soul, I know you're the one. The answer to all my prayers Hashem listened, and you're the witness The testimony to Zion, I knew who you were, You haven't opened your mouth yet. For me, this felt like something sacred The moment that existed only between us For a second, I've felt that maybe you see it, too That maybe you cared enough to greet or look? Torn between two nations, With hot blood and a cold mind You won my heart before all the wars Killing me softly, without M16 or intifadas Fighting for my freedom, Fight for the freedom of my soul that you've captured, But I didn't protest. Your curls are a testament to my faith, Inshallah, I'll clip a kippah to them one day And see the soft smile at the corner of your lips... To the one who made me see the beauty of your people

you made me see
