You claimed to keep us
|
|
In your heart.
|
|
Are you surprised
|
|
To find it scarred?
|
|
What better way
|
|
To leave our mark?
|
|
|
|
For our hearts were shattered,
|
|
You natural disaster,
|
|
In your endless search
|
|
For the greenest pasture.
|
|
|
|
Learn to tend the fields
|
|
Already in your care.
|
|
It takes some time to yield
|
|
The produce growing there.
|
|
|
|
The city will sustain you
|
|
Wherever you may roam,
|
|
|
|
But what wonders
|
|
Will you build
|
|
Without a place
|
|
To call your home?
