Children of Gaza

Children are weeping 
While soldiers are creeping
We are peacefully sleeping
While alarms are beeping

Children are running
With parents of cunning 
The war of gunning 
Isn’t so stunning

Children are dying 
While we are spying 
Water is drying
Parents are crying

Why wont we act
The screen is cracked
We’ve backed
From the true pact
