In the name of my country I cry,
I sorrow,
I'm broken,
Several innocent souls,
fallen by the arrows of bombers
Young and old
Great and small
Even the unborn roses,
All gone
In the name of my country I wail,
I mourn,
I'm depressed,
Over masses,
Who watched their crops
Washed away by hell waters
The rich,
Who watched their wealth drown in flood
Everyone,
Who watched their sweat wash away
Like a miscarried pregnancy
In the name of my country I sob,
I bleed, . I'm heartbroken,
Seeing humans
Being killed like animals by fellow humans
Youths,
With bright future,
Brutally cut down in their prime
In the name of my country I WAR,
I RAGE,
Against this callousness and barbaric act
In the name of my country I call for justice,
JUSTICE! JUSTICE!! JUSTICE!!!
Must take it's course,
Right in my country
In the name of my country
