Just like before
We harmonize the land.
Why?
To rest, recoup, repair,
Keep our people happy,
Then we go to war again;
We must expand.
But women will be killed,
Children and babies lost,
Homes destroyed
Corpses everywhere.
What for! What for! Why!
Why carry on so mercilessly.
Its time to think, to talk,
To see the difference,
To share the land,
Have lasting peace.
They will not listen to our plan,
They do not care for us.
We must ensure we are secure;
What they do is not our concern.
Of no concern?
No! they are not like us,
They have a different God,
They're from a different land;
For them we do not care.
We'll harmonize the land!
