I have come from a land
Of old mysteries
Where people's dream is peace it seems
Of not mighty mountains
But humble hills
The cleanest air you'd breathe your gills
Oh how i wish
You'd meet the people within
Whose hearts are young and cultures thriving
The tales and myths
Of how our story begins
The new is old, their words worth listening
And now I've lived
in this new terrain
Of waves and plains through heavy rains
The hills, the mills, the daffodils
They have it all
Its God's own will
Their love for art and filmy things
Come rain or shine
They've made good films
The pain that stains
There was catastrophe
They fought it all with unity
And now with all these pleasantries
I pray 'God bless your families.'
