I know of a country that once was With happy citizen living in harmony As one nation with one voice Though of different tribes and tongues I know of a country thatonce was Where the leaders were the followers And the followers were the leaders And all lived in togetherness and peace I know of a country that once was History says it used to flow of milk and honey Perhaps that is too long ago a time For all that is left of it is ruin I know of a country that is no more Its people cry out hoping for redemption While it also stares at the people Hoping be saved as it bleed
