We try to introduce our belief
Hoping we will spread relief.        
We want to teach our knowledge
By sending our kids to college

Peace and love should be our goal
Not to provoke people or hurt their soul
Freedom should be our first priority
In order for everyone to get clarity

We should let every nation or religion free
Let everyone live his life, even we don’t agree
We should respect the ways of our neighbor
As not to be the master of their labor

God blessed us with goods in quantity
No one should have to starve in reality
To survive we should avoid any enmity
And be mindful and caring for humanity

As we were created without our input
We want to feel again the bad and good
Do we know why humans are on this earth?
Although we are all searching since our birth

No one asks the simple question why?
Why do we cry when we see someone die?
But we know that we are fortunate
As long as we are alive, just like that

In my view we cry for our own sake
As we don’t know how to get a break
When we are faced with hardship and loss
And our lack of preparedness comes across

We were told that being on earth is a fall
As we were scared facing our goal
Our ancestors who were here before
Helped us when we reached their door

We were not abandoned when we came down
We kept our silver thread and our crown
Until our inner strength will be regained
And the return to our height obtained
