You ask: What is the meaning of refugee?
They will say: One who is uprooted from his homeland.
You ask: What is the meaning of homeland?
They will say: The house, the mulberry tree, the chicken coop, the beehive, the smell of bread, and the first sky.
You ask: Can a word of eight letters be big enough for all of these, yet too small for us?
