adapted from Pashtun Boys’ Video Exalts Suicide Raids
Near the highest peak in Hindu Kush,
is Tirich Mir ,"roof of the world"
is Tirich Mir ,"roof of the world"
Afghani boys play with a camera
one clad in black,
face covered,
with plastic bombs around his waist
he kicks up the dusty ground,
creates an explosive whirl
pushes over a boy wearing white,
as if an official,
The boys stumble and fall
playing suicide bombers
A popular song accompanies them
حبيبي هو الذهاب الى الحرب، لذلك كان له شعر طويل
وقال انه يحمل بندقيته على كتفه آلة، والتي تبدو حتى غرامة عليه.
قال انه ذاهب الى معركة، والذهاب للقتال.
My beloved is going to fight, so he has long hair وقال انه يحمل بندقيته على كتفه آلة، والتي تبدو حتى غرامة عليه.
قال انه ذاهب الى معركة، والذهاب للقتال.
He carries his machine gun on his shoulder, which looks so fine on him.
He is going to battle, going to fight.
Violence, like romance, seduces
Children who play at killing
Under the 'roof of the world'
