00:00It used to be a beautiful and clean village, but when the war came, they bombed it and

00:11we came to the tents.

00:13And the tents are nothing like the village.

00:16All the tents, all the tents smell bad.

00:20They bring, they bring the ants, they bring the mosquitos.

00:27We want to go back and see our brothers, and see the whole world.

00:33Those were good days.

00:36We wanted to go to the sea, to see our father play in the sea.

00:41He would carry my brother and throw him in the sea.

00:45When we finished swimming, we would go to the marache.

00:49He used to do this, he would put us on his back.

00:53My brother Ahmad, every day we would go and play with him.
