Under the Shadow of a Tree
NOW,I AM ALONE
ALONE IN THIS DESERT
I AM BURNING
NOW.................
IT'S THE TIME TO
THINK ABOUT PAST
LIKE A PRODIGAL SON
MOM......................
WHEN I WAS UNDER YOUR WINGS
I WAS SAFE
I WAS HAPPY
BUT NOW I LOST YOU
NO......................
I DESERTED YOU
I CUT THAT TREE
WHICH GAVE ME SHADE
NOW I AM BURNING
IN THIS DESERT
MOM..................
I AM SORRY.........
SORRY.................
SORRY................
I WANT TO DIE LIKE JUDAS
BECAUSE I HAVE DONE A SIN
BUT YOUR MEMORIES COME BACK
TO HELP ME
IT GAVE ME POWER TO STAND
AND FIGHT AGAINST LIFE
NOW I AM PLAYING YOUR ROLE
AS A MOTHER
AS A BIG TREE
WHICH GIVE SHADE TO
THOUSANDS OF CHILDREN
THIS IS MY GIFT TO YOU
MOM........................
