hawk and sparrow
hope and fear
rainbow and arrow
laughter and tear

i should run for my life,
but i stay still
i should scream till i'm sore,
but i don't
i should lay down my life,
and i will
but for this,
for this i won't.

i feel sorry for those who've lost their compassion
i feel sorry for those who still can, but don't
i would lay down my life for my child
but for them,
for them i won't.

motema eleli pinzoli ya maura
bokabuani ya molino ekobebisa mokili
soki po na koboma bato naboyi
ngai na kokoka te, oh¦.

(translation:
my heart is crying, tears of sorrow
when the soul is divided, all our worlds are broken
but if it comes to taking human life, i refuse..
not me¦.not ever¦)
