They're all here together –
We're all here together –
Some out, some in
Others doing things within,
The girls in their twenties,
Sit within the kitchen,
Laughing, giggling
Sharing stories with one another.
Peeling potatoes and onions
While grandma prepares the goods.
They are together, with one another
Commune together, one another.
Mothers would be by their sides
Giving rightly orders,
And gleeful smiles,
Their children, growing ever tall
And them their age would come and call.
They'd run up and down within the house
The babies and toddlers would play
Shielded from the degrading world
Pure from earthly lows.
The brothers, the fathers,
They'd watch and shine
Their livelihoods have not dried
A family grown with love and care,
They would have thanked with despot snare.
Come, come, together with us now
Our happiness and life are tied and wound
Commune – Conduct – Concise together!
