THE PEACEFUL LAND OF MY DREAMS

Peace like a sea clear and still,

Free from tumbling and upsetting waves,

Is my wish for my land.

That far and near my land will be adored for peace.

Where we love each other irrespective of our differences,

Where our students go to schools unafraid of being abducted,

Where we move around unafraid of a straight bullet flying across,

Where our homes are secure whether we are around or not.

Where the radio do not speak of terrifying news of conflicts,

Where we worship without being attacked.

A land where foreigners come to take refuge.

Sadly, my land is not in the state I desire.

I pray that my dreams come true for my land

That tranquility and love would abound.
