Whom are we waiting for?

Whom are we waiting for?

For John we are waiting for?

 

He has traveled on a journey

To a land of limited return

He has gone to serve his country

To a market place of no return

For john we are waiting for?

 

This land he has gone to,

Is crying

Its tears are flowing  

Like Niagara falls only

This time with talents and dreams

Within it,

He has gone to join his comrades

Soiling his hands like they in this Niagara Falls

Of dreams and talents

 

 

May the bird of death never take him,

May he not be in dan.ger

The danger a gazelle faces in the hands

Of a lion

For john we are waiting for?

We will keep waiting for you till return

We have hope,

Though my neighbors have personified hope

As the heaviest weight a man can carry

I am prepared to carry it.

It’s the band of the idealist

This land of no return
