Afghanistan

By Maria Momand

Tears come to our eyes, as memories return listening to a song
About our beautiful Afghanistan, the land where we belong

So much death,so much destruction, so much despair
Sometimes I wonder if those left behind know we still care

But no matter how long from our home we remain apart
Our land, our people, our history, remain dear to our heart

Seems everday news of tradgedy and sorrow
What can we do but pray for a peaceful tomorrow?

We that are here must unite and from past mistakes learn
For we will be the leaders to show the way, when we return
