The scintillant laughters of my loved ones,
the radiant smiles of the innocent souls
All slaughtered to fulfill evil goals,
all massacred by bombs and guns

So much of this war and terror,
enough of this blood and gore
Is this what He created us for?
Is this why we came here for?

Dejected and forlorn, I leave this world,
where bullets command and injustice rule
I leave to applaud the struggling right,
I die only, for the love of life!
