Once again,
A terror strike!
Once again 
somewhere inside,
Faith shivered,
Religion died...

Once again, 
The boat arrived,
Carrying arms for
A deadly strike!

The stars shuddered,
A violent night!
Once again, somewhere inside
History suffered,
Misery survived….

Once again,
In a faraway land
Children cried;
Humanity breathed, then
Slowly died…

In the name of God, 
such unholy wrath,
And he watches silent, 
the bloody bath!

A helpless witness
To our mortal cries,
Or a victim to
The conniving minds!

Once again, somewhere inside
He painfully died
And the candles light
The vigil all night...
