Here are the lyrics for Michael Jackson's unreleased 1993 song "Palestine, Don't Cry," as sourced from Genius Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
See the plains of the days of old
Just a century ago
When stories of peace were told
Of how Galilee ran through
The Jordan river
What remains are cold
Tales of war, of the death and dying
Bomb shells are flying
Bodies multiplying,
See the children crying

[Pre-Chorus]
What are they fighting for?

[Chorus]
I will pray for you, Oh, Palestine
Oh, Palestine, I will carry you, oh, Palestine
Palestine, come deep in my heart
I’ll always love you
Palestine, don’t cry, I will pray for you,
Oh, Palestine, Oh, Palestine, Oh, Palestine
God’s a place for you, Oh, Palestine
And, I believe in you, Oh, Palestine, I will die for you.

[Verse 2] (Same as Verse 1)
[Pre-Chorus] (Same as Pre-Chorus)
[Chorus] (Same as Chorus)

The song was intended for the 1995 album HIStory but was never released, with lyric sheets auctioned in 2010 and 2014. No definitive reason for its non-release is confirmed.
