To quenched my thirst 
From the trap of war.

You discuss about career
When armoured carriers
Rummage through my community

All I need is a glass of water
To kill the taste of blood
By sanctifying lives to have a life.

Then we can discuss about 
Future. Please, help to pass 
A glass of cup to end the war.
