Generations follow one another.
Same causes, same effects.
Chained hearts, slaves to hatred.
The wind of fear contaminates thought,
turns it into violence, sows mourning.
Anguished souls, thirsty for peace,
In the middle of a barren desert.
cry for the end of a painful pilgrimage.
Exhausted body, dejected mind
find their peace
in a journey of no return.
