| Lyrics: | I am born today, the sun burns its promise in my eyes;
Mama strikes me and I draw a breath and
cry.
Above me a cloud softly tumbles through the sky;
I am glad to be alive.
It is me seventh day, I taste the hunger and I cry;
my brother and sister cling to Mama's
side.
She squeezes her breast, but it has nothing to provide;
someone weeps, I fall
asleep.
It is twenty days today, Mama does not hold me anymore;
I open my mouth
but I am too weak to cry.
Above me a bird slowly crawls across the sky;
why is there
nothing now to do but die |
