The symbol of courage and strength 

even your flag emits the rays of mettle 

The world applauds your resilience in 

this whirlwind that inflicts pain to your bleeding nation 


You have shamelessly embraced yourself with your warm flag 

the blanket of peace even in this stormy weather 

you have touched the joints of bones that gave up 

even before walking the path of freedom reviving the spirit of hope


Through battered windows they watch you take the walk of tribulation 

but I know tomorrow, our eyes will feast in jubilation as

the world helps you sit on your throne of sovereignty, peace and freedom

I strongly believe that  day is drawing nearer ......

I will watch you perish because my hands  are tied. You are now left alone with your nest askew reeking melancholy. I saw your tears yesterday I see them today  but if you leave them  I will see them tomorrow You have been left with scars  But they come to add more  I watch you fall into depression accompanied by  Low self-esteem because you trust and love too much Your ribs are broken  Your wings are tender  Your legs are shaking Your head is hammering  I will bandage and sooth you  Small ...
