Drops of blood run with rain,
A stream, a river, an ocean of pain.
A sword in my hand, a gash in my side,
My Country, my people, my child lost in the tide.

The enemy long gone to slay my home,
My knees in mud my thoughts on the roam.
Life is leaving me yet all I can think,
My child alone, my Kingdom on the brink.

Smoke from burnt flesh wander as ghosts,
Fire and man together without host.
Hanging my head, my friends dead at my side,
I’m here alive, but my hope has died.

Yet, soon, so to will I.
