For millions of migrant workers, Saudi Arabia is not just a country of employment—it is a place where broken hopes are repaired, where survival turns into stability, and where dignity is slowly rebuilt through honest labor. Behind the remittances, long shifts, and quiet sacrifices lies a deep emotional connection that is rarely captured in headlines.
That unspoken bond recently found expression through a poem recited by Susan Lusiche, whose words reflect the collective voice of workers who have found purpose and endurance in the Kingdom.
“With a melodious voice I sing,
when life gets tough and we feel like giving up,
you are the reason we keep going.
In times of darkness, you are our lamp.
Saudi Arabia, forever in our hearts.”
For many migrants, hardship is not a stranger. Economic pressure, family responsibilities, and the weight of expectations follow them across borders. Yet in Saudi Arabia, opportunity often replaces despair, offering a chance to rebuild lives that once stood on the edge.
“During our difficulties, you are there to provide for us.
We enjoy our solitude and protect our energy.
No negativity—only peace, love, and unity.
Saudi Arabia, forever in our hearts.”
The poem speaks to more than employment. It highlights a journey of self-reliance and inner growth—one where workers learn to stand strong, shield themselves from despair, and find pride in independence.
“We have the ability to stand
and build something no one can take away from us.
You make us proud.
We can afford life without troubling anyone.
Saudi Arabia, forever in our hearts.”
As global conversations around labor migration continue, voices like Susan Lusiche’s offer a human lens—one rooted not in statistics, but in lived experience. Her recital captures gratitude, resilience, and the quiet victories that define migrant life.
In a world quick to focus on struggle, this poetic tribute reminds us that for many, Saudi Arabia remains a land where hope is restored, one working day at a time.
