Encrucijada

Feliz Navidad, said the jolly Christians
Feliz Hanuka, responded the jewish couple
A fight broke off
Feliz Hanuka, said the Christian, was when the jews killed Christ
the muslim intervened
he didn´t said Mabrouk Eid,
he tried to break up the fight
the Jew was grateful, yet perplexed
Un joven musulmán que se mete y ayuda a un judío en Hanuka.
esto es un milagro,
the papers reported him saying.
The muslim insisted it was nothing,
he was doing his duty as a human being,
that was how his parents had raised him,
but he was being dubbed a hero
for it seemed this act really was a miracle
in HanukaEidNavidad.
