No water, no oil,
only blood seeps through my sand,
That's what they call me,
I am no man's land .
I have seen soldiers crumble,
I have been war torn,
scarred with bullets and mines ,
deserted and forlorn .
I have witnessed brave men wailing,
begging for thier end,
that's what they call me ,
I am no man's land .
From arrows to howitzers,
from swords to tanks,
I range from rocky terrains,
to deserts and river banks,
covered with blood of innocent,
I stink from gunpowder ,
slaughter and blood shed ,
for a so called "border",
I mourn with wailing mothers,
for their only child's end,
for that's what they call me,
I am no man's land.
Why do humans kill ?
don't they know they are brothers,
how can some mere sketches,
seperate hearts from each other ?
Let the weapons rust,
let strategies go to ease,
all I want to say is ,
"Give a chance to peace".
