"A Song For Peace"
Let the sun rise
and give the morning light,
the purest prayer
will not bring us back.
He whose candle was snuffed out
and was buried in the dust,
a bitter cry won't wake him,
won't bring him back.
Nobody will return us
from the dead dark pit.
Here, neither the joy of victory
nor songs of praise
will help.
So sing only for peace,
don't whisper a prayer,
it's better to sing a song for peace
with a giant shout!
Let the sun penetrate
through the flowers,
don't look backward,
leave those who have departed.
Lift your eyes with hope
not through the rifle sights
sing a song for love
and not for wars.
Don't say the day will come,
bring the day,
because it is not a dream.
And within all the city's squares,
cheer for peace.
And sing, sing a song for peace,
don't whisper a prayer,
it's better to sing a song for peace
with a giant shout!
