LAST WINTER
Last winter, it was freezing cold
The same old story I was told
The children came, a torch they hold
At the same time, searching for hope
Last winter, the children came to me
Asking for anything, money can also be
There are drops of ice, shaking to their knee
They sang a song, but not for long
Last winter, the soldiers came
They were not animals but they were tamed
What they did was not a sin, poor kids
I tried to speak but I turned out weak
Last winter, I heard the cries of children
Begging for help from a young maiden
Named me, but there was nothing that I can
All the townspeople stared at the young men
Last winter, everyone was silent
The rustling of the winter breeze
Is all I can feel and hear
I kept on hiding it, my fear
Last winter, no one moved
To save the lives of innocent children
No one knows what happened then
Whether it is sad or a happy end
