I was born, my country at war!
Grew up in conflicting pro...!
Worst coming still is more!
Why do I have to live with war?
Look the merciless maw!
Alas! The mind is raw!
Floating on terrorist yaw!
Why do I have to live with war?
Brain-washed are the national bough!
Misled are the youth you know!
In dark today and now!
Why do I have to live with war?
Phew! They are in row!
Towards death of wow!
No light and door!
Why do I have to live in war?
From paw to paw!
Their life is low!
Between jaw and jaw!
Why do I have to live with war?
Ordered is boy to blow!
Killing lots and how!
Including goat and cow!
Why do I have to live with war?
Showering with blood is Mogadishu!
Danger-zone is Kismaio!
Parturient is Galka'o!
Why do I have to live with war?
Goodbye I say to war!
Then I hear the roar!
Making me see what I saw!
Why do I have to live with war?
STOP teaching the grammar of war!
Needed is peace and law!
PLEASE learn how and know!
Why do I have to live with war?
