1. Frost settles in the meadows of the soul
With the thorns of ice it wounds then hardens

2. Disappointments vie with us and grieve
No wonder if despair prevailed

3. Naked in the searing gusts we ache
To crush our people we build armies

4. We fight each other to ransom thrones
And Zion sends us off in coffins

5. And Obama has become Bush to us
Alone in hellish estrangement we're flung

6. The lands of Arabs, endless torment
And dreams the darkness 'kneads'

7. With the blade of vigilance the goal is missed
Sealed passports it cohabitates

8. Border queues will remain forever
Our defeats on foot and on leg

9. And for our setback how many aspirations flared
Our resolves clashed into discord

10. And we were divided, denuded of rest
And we spent enclosed in a framework of bondage

11. And dictations of venom, a sword's edge
It's the 'Uncle' that scatters us unjustly

12. And we remain hoping for coolness in summer
And the promise of peace is spurious fraud

13. Enough! Our dreams torn and ripped
Oppressors over us, even more bitter

14. They spread separation, woe and slander
We built in the pockets of night a sobbing place

15. The eyes of woe will water us anguish
Perplexed in the searing gusts we ache
