River Flows Backwards

The small river flowing in the distance
Is singing a old song
Why
Are they still starving?
Wilderness is everywhere
Where do I have to go to get green leaves?
Why
Are they still waiting for charity?

Millions and millions of people who can't be happy
What can one me do?
At least I won't be a spectator

God will be merciful
Just let me be consoled
All the flowing water can move backwards
All the hardships can be taken back
Millions and millions of years
Millions and millions of rivers remain
I know
They are the tears of the world
(The best
Is that no one cries)

The tourists from the East
Understand very well the kind of roughness
What are you waiting for?
They are still starving
There are invasions everywhere
Where can I go to have a choice?
What are you waiting for?
You can only give if you have
