I Feel For the Victims
I feel for the innocent victims
The ones brutally eliminated
Future and ambitions in tombs
Why is humanity against humanity?
I feel for the innocent victims
The ones butchered without mercy
Nations offended, nations mourning
Why is humanity against humanity?
I feel for the innocent victims
The ones made less human and gone
Killed without any crime committed
Why is humanity against humanity?
I feel for the innocent victims
In London, Paris, Kabul, Kampala, Boston
Sent away from earth with no ceremony
Why is humanity against humanity?
I feel for the innocent victims
With parents, friends, relatives wailing
For the loved deleted for reason unworthy
Why is humanity against humanity?
I feel for the innocent victims
With determination and universal love
Sharpen swords of wisdom and brotherhood
Why wait? Today is the time tomorrow late
Civilized World, all of us with God, rise up,
Let us defend humanity against blind hatred
