He 1) stands alone in the shadow Rejected
Facing the animosity of the mob He shivers
He limps and his face is covered with blood And seeks
He longs for a shelter A home
Who could foretell a new blood wedding In this century
In the history book, will not be mentioned His name
Not a celebrity no, but a Victim
Not named in the propaganda articles In the newspapers
He is no news, not important A showdown
But to me he is So important
My brother my sister my father my mother Are you
For you I suffer with him and all the children suffer For me
I know that he is soft, sweet and deadly Wounded
I can sense it as if I were him, briefly him I am
And I shall remember him and if not for me Myself
Then I breathe still and whisper Your name And live for Him
1) Instead of he/him one can also read she/her of course.
