Brotherhood

Our differences are keeping us from each other
That is the reason why we don’t bother
To check if our brother’s ship already sank
Or say a magical word like thanks.

Though the mountains seen unmovable
And the temptations are irresistible.
When we are together we can make it happen
We can even make the sun shine all of the sudden.

Our colors are not the same
We do not play the same game
But both of us believe in only one God
Who guides us to face the odds.

Here I am dear friend
Hoping your agony will end
Just try to forget your sorrow
Them maybe you’ll see a bright tomorrow

Even if we do not speak the same language
I’m still willing to help you carry your baggage.
For we believe in God above
He who gives land gives us love 

Though  at a glance we may seem weak
But we can help you find everything you seek
If we hang on together
We wil;l be able to hold out until the storm is over.
