Today NOOR produksjoner joins the protest against Trumps recogition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel in Trondheim

NOOR produksjoners Tale Næss has written this poem, here in a rough English translation. And it was read at a protest gathering in Tordenskjoldparken today, at 13.30 in Trondheim by NOOR produksjoners Trond Peter Stamsø Munch.


JERUSALEM

 

There is no claim to ownership

for that who belong to us all

If your walls tumble

Jerusalem
prayers will raise from the ground in Aramaic

in Arabic

in German and French

in languages long forgotten

You are the light
                                       waiting at nightfall


As long as you are open

our hearts are open

You are not to be owned

You are not to be conquered

defeated

desecrated

Will never be owned

defeated

desecrated

Time named you

No one can un-name you

In your streets

history team up  with the Gods

Let`s keep your gates open

Let`s pour the wine

break the bread

spread out a white tablecloth

                                                           bright in this meek December sun

Let`s gather at Bab Shams

by the Damascus gate

lets turn our faces towards the four corners of the world and shout out the names of our loved ones –

Let`s reclaim you
