God and a drop of oil

Translated from Arabic into English by MAHA A. BECHARA, the book "God and a drop of oil" published first 1997 and hit the shelves the same year.

The first chapter "Burn me with your light" starts like this:

Burn me..
Burn me with Your light,
Baptise me again in Your seas.
I always love to see You
Bless me, so I can fulfill Your desires.
Draw me a sword against the slavery,
A reality coming out of a dream,
Exploding all kinds of love and feelings.
Make me a song on people's lips
A dove, with a peace mission.
Oh God!...
You're always on my mind.
Blow me a cloud wider than earth
To rain crops everywhere,
To blow the hate away;
And decorate baskets, instead
By the waiting flowers
On the children's lips.

And thanks God, here are all the chapters.
