Peaceful Consent Xc

You are the most beautiful love of our lives You make the heat of the sun soothing to the skin You make the fear of the storm a simple excuse You make the lightning an thunder sound like music You are the dream of every young heart around You are the console of many pilots of peaceful landing You are the plaque in the hearts of men of valour You are the stitch in time after the strong tear Here is the beef sun dried and peppered to your taste Here is the carrot watered and gardened to your table Here is the bread cake of the nation fresh and sweet Here is the temptation, wizardry and subtle witchcraft Of the villain lurking on the verges of your conscience But shielded by the beautiful love shining forth A light to the narrow minded people from yonder A pride of a nation and a prop to democratic points But do not slander the cracked feet of the Nomads But do not neglect the artisans and their workman-ships But do not suffer the wisdom of the ancestors here And betray the most beautiful trust reposed in you
