The cost of war

My family’s a part of injured nation.

We are aware of the cruelty of war.

We bear scars of “war-torn generation”

As our grandparents can be called.

They suffered an appalling fate, for sure:

They witnessed bloodshed, were in hell.

For their memories there is no cure

Even after more than six decades.

They spread the word on real cost of war:

Lost homes, tortured children, crying mothers,

When “kill or die” becomes the only law,

The only dream – to save the Motherland from outsiders.

Their lives were sacrificed for our freedom.

We have a heartache every ninth of May:

On Victory Day we hardly believe in being winners –

By win too many losses were gained!

Today I plead with you – who put people’s lives at stake:

Lay down arms; enjoy the Peace, for God’s sake!
