BUT WHO CAN HEAR US?
I cry,we cry but who will hear us?
their ears have been deafened by
bombs
Their eyes blinded by smoke and
teargas
their sense of smell has normalised
blood stench
Their crippled bodies itch for
revenge
Their scarred skins craves
retaliation
So tell me who will hear us?
its you and me that hears us
For our ear drums are still clear
They hear the cries of children in
Syria
Our hearts are still human
We feel the pain of our mothers in
Afganistan
Our eyes are now sore
For we cry with our migrant
brothers in South Africa
Only us can save them
We are crying now, peace to the
world
But who can hear us?
