When We Were Children

Many centuries
Holy sword has been running free
Through the roses with blood and tears
Through the souls the eyes and ears

When we were children
Around in circle we shared our dreams
By the river in the spring
Surrounded with apple trees

On the other side of the river roses grew
On the day when the sky was blue
On the river roses float
On the old stone our names we wrote

We were children of bravery
We were impious children of affinity
We could hear the call of the dragon in the night
In our dreams he would come
Take us all on a flight
On a journey through the velvet sky
Into the wonderland

We were children we were impious
We were bound by nature obedience
We could hear we could see
The dreams that we used to share

In the sky of the velvet night
We could see the fairy light
Of imaginary wonderland
The land of our dragon friend

Nature fidelity Benevolence liberty
Impiety Love affinity
Faith of deity Hate captivity
Faith of deity Belligerans slavery

When we were children we used to play
By growing up we learned to pray
Our prayers were not the same
Future enemies we became

We were only children then
Today we are religious men
We pray death to those who dissent
We are blessed by the lord of our faith

While the years were passing by
Holy voices were calling us
Into the division World of god
With many voices and many lights

Hither and thither we divide
We could no more see the fairylight
The dragon never called us again
The end of dreams of wonderland
Hither and thither we all went

Tears of the dragon for the end of dreams
For the old stone lying broken into pieces of many
In the distance between us blood is running
Roses are dropping their leafs and dying
Day by day we learned to pray
Into the world of darkness we came

Nature gave us air to breath
Gave us roses love to give
Religion gave us holy books
Gave us darkness gave us doom

We are children we are impious
In affinity we want to live
Please do not turn off the
Light of fairy in the sky
Please do not make our friend
The dragon cry

When we were children we used to play
By growing up we learned to pray
Our prayers were not the same
Future enemies we became

We were only children then
Today we are religious men
We pray death to those who dissent
We are blessed by the lord of our faith
