You are a million old
I didn’t see your birth
But,
I heard about your beauty
I heard about the love you give to others
I heard about the soothing ruido of lakes
I heard about the soothing ruido of snowflakes.
Then why tell me why
Why now everybody let you to cry
Why now everybody let you to die
Why now there is no helping hand for you.
I do remember the tales of your life
As how you used to smile
How you used to live
As how everybody took care of you around the world
Then why tell me why
Why now nobody cares for you
Why now everybody let you to spoil
Why you are being crushed
Why your beauty is being demolished
Why your loved ones, the daughters and the sons are being snatched.
Alas!!!
You are lost somewhere
We just hope for your rebirth,
As your rebirth is our birth.
