School days

This is the school where I teach …. it was made of clay , stones and palm leaves … now it is built of bricks and cement.
As everyday , pupils go to their school that is no longer able to give them enough place due to their increasing numbers.
Still , success and challenge inside them is stronger than place limits. On Thursday morning , pupils are lined up to greet the flag as usual .Three of them advance to lift the country flag at absolutely holy moments , that everyone stands silent and keeps watching the dignified flag. Other pupils envy that pupil who got the honor of lifting and kissing the flag.
All raise hands to hail the flag and chorally sing :
My homeland , My homeland
My homeland , My homeland
Dignity , beauty , brightness and shining
At your eminences , At your eminences
Life , safety , happiness , hope
In your love , In your love ,
Shall I witness , Shall I witness ……
That you are safe , prosperous , victorious and sublime
Shall I see you in elevations …
To reach the skies
My homeland , My homeland
A pupil advances to say a poem addressed as ( oh , the flag ! )
Oh , the flag , stay in elevations … as we are fixed to you next
To our god ( Allah )
Live wavering in your highness and be sure that ….. all parties support you
They come to hail you closely to show ……
Their pleasure , so look at these people .
Eyes are glad to witness that ….. heart delights , hopes smile
If you are despised , people will be despised too …..
If you are respected , people will be respected too .
People is you and you are the uplifting people …..
And you are the people’s dignity and immensity.
As you are safe , people will keep happy ….
As you die , hopes and spirits fade away .
This rising salutation that you listen to …..
Is all but for you , so listen oh , the flag !
Pupils get into glasses to begin struggle against darkness and illiteracy …
They deal with arithmetic , English and other topics …
