| | Hi elmota, could you please do this translation. The requester wants high quality but none of us knows Arabic, so we trust your skills to satisfy this demand.
Thanks in advance.

| | the second translation was pretty close, we should have worked on it a bit, but yoyo knows english very well, its like she's testing our lingual abilities, with all the free services we are providing! but anyway... im not an expert translator (this is a very special field of study that nadjet is a pro at) but i will have a shot |

| | I feel the pain of every slap directed towards the oppressed in this world right on my face, for wherever oppression is, that is my homeland.
Don't care where and when I'll die, as long as the rebels are filling the world with commotion, so that the world does not lie asleep, with all pressure, upon the bodies of the poor. |

| | Thank you elmota.
Anyway, I'll set a poll and our requester might be greatly satisfied with your impeccable version.

| | Hi elmota,
I think I understand the first half:
I feel on my own face the pain of every slap directed towards the oppressed of the world, for wherever oppression is found, there is my homeland
Unfortunately, the second part is still unclear to me. Could I ask you to paraphrase the meaning of the second half for me please?
Thanks!

| | i dont know how to explain it any further, is there any particular part that gives you the hard time? "dont care when or where i'll die" is just an expression that means i dont care about anything... as long as i leave behind me those people who will keep creating the commotion around the world, she calls them the rebels, and the commotion is like noise filling the world, and those rebels are going to keep the world from adding more burdan to the already burdaned - the poor, she expresses that as if the world would sleep upon the poor to crush them, and the world is already heavy... so ... i think thats it |

| | So is this okay?
I do not care where or when I die, as long as we rebels continue to fill the world with commotion, so that the world cannot continue sleeping, with its weight crushing down upon the bodies of the poor.

| | the second part: "with its weight crushing down upon the bodies of the poor" sounds right, "continue sleeping" is defintely not correct, so the wrold would not sleep with its weight... |
