such a fearsome roar
sound of bombers flying
tuneless song of war
men and children dying

mountaintop is blackened
burning into mire
death a screaming wind
scorching kiss of fire

trees bow down in ashes
grass and flower die
stream and river wither
mist to blasted sky

sun and stars are wailing
moon is brought to tears
priceless beauty shattered
wasteland made of fears

prideful greed and power
plans of death they birth
from their ivory tower
crimes against the earth

vengeful hearts are beating
sick with hate and strife
evil spirits feasting
alive but without life

late now draws the hour
yet we can make it right
let love be our power
stand up in the light

pull down veils of darkness
push shadows from this world
hope remains unyielding
let rainbow color swirl

dance to life a new day
sing of joy and love
smile upon a stranger
heal the wounded dove
