10,000 Arrows
A river of
10,000 arrows
Pierce the heads and breasts
Of the children
Who stumble
In torrential rains…
Modern men
Become kings
And forget their sons
Men who
Seal their gold
In vaults of steel…
Money can be a trap
Gold can cover the eyes
And death will take it all
O Man
See the wealth
Death cannot take!
While a river of
10,000 arrows
Pierce the heads and breasts
Of the orphans
Who stumble
In torrential rains…
