The whisper of the dead,
snap of the flags in breezes,
their breath across the way, the path,
Their cemetery is not silent…
 
The cries of the dead, their groans,
cry out for aid, for justice,
for help for their people,
for this madness to end…
 
The whisper of their dead
breathe life into movement
snap of the flags, praying,
crying out for aid, for justice…
 
May their cries be answered,
More aid should be given, fully…
May justice come quickly…
A just peace will rise…
