They call me communist

They call me capitalist

They call me nationalist

And I am just a human being,

Why is that not enough?

 

Countries set themselves on fire

(While) mothers (are) mourning, crying

many children being hurt/being in pain/suffering

with/and all the words that we use

            to kill each other and destroy

 

(Oh) you, river,

We are standing on your side/bank

tears dropping on us

            getting mixed in your heart.
