Somewhere Very Far Away
dedicated
to James Byrd
from Georgia
---------------------------
Somewhere very far away,
The terrible storm has arrived,
and like a terrorist, this terrible terrorist
destroys all! It kills people,
it destroys their houses,
it dares to celebrate a bloody victory.
Somewhere very far away,
my friend lives.
I thought his house is inaccessible to the storm.
but now this terrorist draws near to my friend.
It threatens him, it frightens him.
But my friend James is courageous and kind.
He will not talk to this villain or be afraid of it.
And indeed, nothing will happen to him or his family
Because I shall pray for them
Here, in Russia, very far away.
