Listen to the rain, widow Listen to the rain Teardrops of the killed Seeking their widows Listen to the wind, orphan Listen to the wind The killed Are calling their babies
Oh merciful sovereigns All your good intentions Tell me are they worth A baby's cry? Oh what do they do? Lord, what do they do? Is their justice worth A harmless child's blood?
Listen to the rain, widow Listen to the rain Teardrops of the killed Seeking their widows Listen to the wind, orphan Listen to the wind The killed Are calling their babies
