UJLE SAFED KABOOTAR
kuchh nazmein philisteen ke naam
Palestine, the land that nurtured three great religions, a land ravaged by a brutal occupation and seemingly perpetual war, the land of a heroic people. The reading starts with a song on Palestine by Faiz Ahmed Faiz and a poem by the Somalian poet Safi Abdi. The centrepiece of the reading is the poem 'Under Siege' by Palestine's best-known poet, Mahmoud Darwish, who died last year. This is a deeply moving, sometimes philosophical, sometimes trenchant, poem that reasserts the basic human values of love, understanding, dignity and self-respect. The reading concludes with excerpts from Nizar Qabbani, Syria's greatest poet. The reading is accompanied by a visual essay by filmmaker and designer Sherna Dastur.
Poems by Faiz Ahmed Faiz, Safi Abdi, Mahmoud Darwish and Nizar Qabbani
