Lay Down Your Arms

Lay down your arms, to stop senseless bloodshed Lay down your arms, to let flowers sprout peacefully and beautifully Lay down your arms, to let the sky to be blue again, without smoke from war Lay down your arms, to let our ears hear the choruses of birds, and the sound of wind, rather than the sounds of guns and explosions Lay down your arms, to stop tears of sorrow from flowing down the cheeks of children and women Lay down your arms, to let the children have a bright future to believe in Lay down your arms, to cease blocking the passageway for blessings on us from the Heavens
