Good morning, cousins.

0:00:12.934,0:00:14.396
Come and honor us with your presence.

0:00:14.396,0:00:17.720
What would you like us to offer you, Arab blood or tears from our eyes?

0:00:17.720,0:00:23.000
I believe that's how they hoped we would greet them. Look how they grew confused when they realized their mistake.

0:00:23.000,0:00:25.855
That's how we wear the kufiya, the black and white kufiya.

0:00:25.855,0:00:28.440
They began playing a long time ago by wearing it as a fashion accessory.

0:00:28.440,0:00:31.480
No matter how creative they become, no matter how they change its color,

0:00:31.480,0:00:33.865
an Arab kufiya will remain Arab.

0:00:33.865,0:00:36.440
Our kufiya: they want it. Our culture: they want it.

0:00:36.440,0:00:39.280
Our dignity: they want it. Everything that's ours: they want it.

0:00:39.280,0:00:41.160
No, we won't be quiet for them. We won't permit them.

0:00:41.160,0:00:42.640
No, no. It suits me.

0:00:42.640,0:00:44.760
Thank you. The thing isn't theirs. It's got nothing to do with you.

0:00:44.760,0:00:47.612
They mimic us in how they dress. This land is not enough for them.

0:00:47.612,0:00:50.354
They're greedy for Jerusalem, Jerusalem. Learn how to say "humanity!"

0:00:50.354,0:00:54.120
Before you wear the kufiya, we have come to remind you who we are.

0:00:54.120,0:00:56.280
And whether you like it or not, it's our kufiya.

0:00:56.280,0:01:01.880
This is how we wore the kufiya (because of patriotism), the kufiya, the Arab kufiya.

0:01:01.880,0:01:07.520
This is how we wore the kufiya (our fundamental identity), the kufiya, the Arab kufiya.

0:01:07.520,0:01:13.000
Come on, raise the kufiya (Raise this kufiya for me!), the kufiya, the Arab kufiya.

0:01:13.803,0:01:18.646
Raise it, bilaad ash-shaam [Greater Syria, i.e. Lebanon, Jordan, Syria, Palestine]! The Arab kufiya will remain Arab.

0:01:18.646,0:01:21.040
There is no group like the Arab people.

0:01:21.040,0:01:24.000
Show me any nation in the world that's more influential!

0:01:24.000,0:01:26.800
The picture is clear. We're the civilization.

0:01:26.800,0:01:29.480
Our history and our heritage are the witness to our existence.

0:01:29.711,0:01:32.317
In this way, we wore the Palestinian thawb.

0:01:32.317,0:01:35.434
From Haifa, Jenin, Jabal an-Nar to Ramallah

0:01:35.434,0:01:38.520
Let me see the koufiye, the white and red one.

0:01:38.520,0:01:40.504
Let me raise it up to the sky.

0:01:40.504,0:01:43.412
I am Shadia the Arab. My tongue stabs like a knife.

0:01:43.412,0:01:46.166
My earthquake trembles uncontrollably. My words are a letter.

0:01:46.166,0:01:49.108
Record it - I am Shadia Mansour and the kufiya is my identity.

0:01:49.108,0:01:51.800
From the day I was created, Sir, and this people is my responsibility.

0:01:51.800,0:01:54.160
That's how I was brought up - between the West and East,

0:01:54.160,0:01:56.117
between two languages, between the [rich] miser and the poor man.

0:01:56.117,0:01:57.680
I saw life from both sides.

0:01:57.680,0:01:59.112
I'm like the koufiye.

0:01:59.112,0:02:03.169
No matter how you wear me, and wherever you take me off, I will remain as my origin: Palestinian.

0:02:03.169,0:02:08.972
This is how we wore the kufiya (because of patriotism), the kufiya, the Arab kufiya.

0:02:08.972,0:02:14.492
This is how we wore the kufiya (our fundamental indentity), the kufiya, the Arab kufiya.

0:02:14.492,0:02:19.909
Come on, raise the kufiya (Raise this kufiya for me!), the kufiya, the Arab kufiya.

0:02:19.909,0:02:25.738
Raise it, bilaad ash-shaam [Greater Syria, i.e. Lebanon, Jordan, Syria, Palestine]! The Arab kufiya will remain Arab.

0:02:48.000,0:02:53.362
This is how we wore the kufiya (because of patriotism), the kufiya, the Arab kufiya.

0:02:53.362,0:02:59.120
This is how we wore the kufiya (our fundamental indentity), the kufiya, the Arab kufiya.

0:02:59.120,0:03:04.637
Come on, raise the kufiya (Raise this kufiya for me!), the kufiya, the Arab kufiya.

0:03:05.474,0:03:10.280
Raise it, bilaad ash-shaam [Greater Syria, i.e. Lebanon, Jordan, Syria, Palestine]! The Arab kufiya will remain Arab.
