"O Sweet Child of Mine"

My child, How do i explain the fear you have inside? The fear in your eyes haunts me everytime i close my eyes It isn't your fault to be born into a world where the adults forget how to be adults

My child, How do i explain what had happened to your father, brothers and uncles? They never wanted to leave you alone with me They loved you too much and so they fought for the future they wanted you to live Even if it meant losing their lives Even if it meant a future without them in it

My child, How do i tell you that you have the power to show us the way? You may be young but you are here to bring back the nation to life again Your late father used to whisper into your ears ,while you were sleeping

"Sweet child of mine, may your feet grow flowers wherever they land..."
