Lebanon... war, pain and blood!

Today, the earth is crying and the clouds are full of tears
The black fume is carrying with it towards stars too heavy sadness...
The pain is digging so deep in the children's eyes without fault
Please God, listen to their sighs and give them a little happiness!

The ruins lied everywhere around....just long sighs and screams
Hearing around how to implore the sky to stop this pain...
A lot of blood flowing on asphalt from crushed bodies
Which have gone so soon without the chance to smile again

Everything around is a fire and burning on the stake of death...
I’m asking myself what kind of soul makes so many crimes...
But I’ve found no words and the only answer is the quitness
Which made me repeat my question for thousand times...

The bombs are falling and the bullets are whistling in the wind
Hey, crazy people, in this world we can live together so well...!
Now leave the guns down, enough you’ve fed them with fire!
For all what you've destroyed, you will be burn in hell!

If you have children, I’ll pray for you never know what pain is
When looking for them under houses which fell on them yesterday
Maybe most people are lucky if they'll escape and run
Because from the little they had, nothing remained today...

A lost child, with his legs bleeding asking about his mother
He doesn’t know that she has died and he’s still calling her
How can I tell him that tomorrow everything will be fine?
Please God, give him a new life to forget he had ever suffer!

The angels are crying too for the pity of this innocent people...
Assassins, why you’ve destroyed what others raised yesterday?
When you will leave this life, all the ways to be closed in the darkness
To ask forgivness from all whom you are killing today...

Just a patch of sky remained from Lebanon...only a few eyes are still watching it
With hopes for a peaceful life.... and nothing more....
Please, my God, have pity and send them bright days !
I know that You are listening to me, that’s why I’m sending my prayers to You...
And tomorrow, on this rebel land the sun will rise again.....
.... like never before ...
