Here I am draped in a flag
Wandering through the ruins
I am seventeen and don't really know
Who demolished my city
My bitter mother says nothing to me
Where has her smile gone?
They have undone our most beautiful refrains, our lives
Me, the child defending mom
Wiping her tears and we sing
He sings

We will go far, the oceans, the seas, and the winds
I will devour them, mom
We will go towards the good
We will go far away
There are wars that we don't heal from, mom
We will go towards the white

Before the rubble and the rascals
We often loved to laugh
All the moms and the kids
Could dream of the future, of life
Me, the child reassuring mom
I take her in my skillful arms and we sing
He sings

We will go far from the wicked, the bad, the villains
I will devour them, mom
We will go towards the good
We will go far away
There are countries for peace, mom
We will go towards the white

Do Europeans cry?
And deep down, who are our friends?
Is there a hand towards tomorrow?
Is there a hand towards tomorrow?
We will go

We will come back, yes
When our city of a thousand suns has healed, mom
We will come back as before
But is there a hand towards tomorrow?
Is there a hand towards tomorrow?
