THE FORGOTTEN HALF - WIDOWS
THE FORGOTTEN HALF - WIDOWS
A violent world today
Confusion prevails all around
Chaos rampant in women's world
Wives, mothers, daughters, sons
Waiting for their husbands, their fathers, their sons
Waiting for their return with dry eyes
A violent world today
Confusion prevails all around
Chaos rampant in women's world
Wives, mothers, daughters, sons
Waiting for their husbands, their fathers, their sons
Waiting for their return with dry eyes
Their men abducted, imprisoned
Or lynched lying around somewhere killed
The families left behind
Waiting for days and nights
Peeping from behind broken doors, windows
These women "the half - widows" of the world
Result of the tragedies inflicted by
Petty politics, terrorism and vendetta
With no hope in sight
Even children have to accept
When they are stripped of their innocent childhood
Life has to be shaped again
For these half - widows and
For these children
Their faces of anger and pain
Living the loss of social harmony
And dwindling credibility of justice
How can the ignored and neglected families
Be happy in any part of the world
Their faces of anger and pain
Living the loss of social harmony
And dwindling credibility of justice
How can the ignored and neglected families
Be happy in any part of the world
It's time
It's high time
To remember these forgotten families
Give them back their hope
Their trust in humanity
It's time
It's high time
To bring these forgotten " half - widows " back to life again
Erase their anger and their pain
It's high time
To bring these forgotten " half - widows " back to life again
Erase their anger and their pain
Be human
Being human makes the world a better place to live in
Being human makes the world a better place to live in
