Can I claim the land where I am now a foreigner
And maybe always was
As I sit beneath the rowan tree
That sturdily guards all souls
This place was always their home
The home I wanted for myself
For all eternity
That never in time was mine
Though when always so far
I yearned for this place that I called home
I heard so many names
Knew the folks from stories told
And through such tales
Felt one of them
And now I sit here
Next to death
And long to claim this land
Beneath the sturdy rowan tree
Hey it’s really awesome

Thankyou so much. I wrote it after paying a visit to my home village that I left when I was a baby.
