Pro-peace

Описание: [Verse 1]
When living leaves you worn and numb,
When you have howled up at the moon,
Somewhere, someone hears the drum:
“Tomorrow, you go to war — and soon.”

A child cried out in broken gasps,
Still clutching tightly to his dad.
His wife would wail the same, perhaps,
But hides the grief she carries, sad.

[Chorus]
“Daddy, please don’t go away!”
The little one screams with all his might.
“Take me in your arms — just stay,
Hear me, Daddy, hear me tonight!”

“I hear you, son — I hear you true.
I’m not the one who chose this war.
The one who sends me forward too
Stays in the rear, far from the roar.”

[Verse 2]
I march to where — I do not know,
For what, for whom — I can’t say why.
But blood is never water, no:
I’ll keep myself alive, I’ll try.

And I will save another soul,
I’ll cover him with my own coat.
I do not care about his role —
He is a human being. That’s all.

[Chorus]
“Daddy, please don’t go away!”
The little one screams with all his might.
“Take me in your arms — just stay,
Hear me, Daddy, hear me tonight!”

“I hear you, son — I hear you true.
I’m not the one who chose this war.
The one who sends me forward too
Stays in the rear, far from the roar.”

[Verse 3]
Remember this forever, son:
There’s nothing higher, nothing dearer
Than human life beneath the sun;
Grow stronger with each day and year.

If not for us, then tell me who
Will guard this world and keep it living?
You know not everyone can do
The work of peaceful, steady leading.

[Chorus]
“Daddy, please don’t go away!”
The little one screams with all his might.
“Take me in your arms — just stay,
Hear me, Daddy, hear me tonight!”

“I hear you, son — I hear you true.
I’m not the one who chose this war.
The one who sends me forward too
Stays in the rear, far from the roar.”

[Outro]
Let’s dare believe, both me and you,
That “money and power” will decide:
The greatest value, pure and true,
Is holding children safe inside.

To look into our children’s eyes
And know we did all we could give:
We made this wounded world more bright,
And kept the lives of others lived.

When living leaves you worn and numb,
When you have howled up at the moon,
Somewhere, someone hears the drum:
-Tomorrow, you go to war — and soon….
