[Verse 1]
Oh, I know your way
Is hard to see today
Bullets, they fly faster than mother's lullabies
And the sparrows cannot sing
For it is theirs to bring
The souls of those lost babies back to the sky
[Verse 2]
So it is yours to sing
My child, my wild brightling
With the love born in the cradle of time
And fight and fight and fight
In the dying light
For all lost and gone forever clementines
[Chorus]
Requiem
Requiem
The question is not if
It was always when
But go on, go on my child
Hope is a prairie fire
Set your embers on the summer wind
[Verse 3]
Courage, mon petit loup
Tu chantes maintenant pour tous
Lеs enfants dans les ombres
Pеurs et froids, perdus
Courage, chanter bien fort
Les perdus vont t'entendre
Et suivre le son de dix mille voix en joie
[Verse 4]
La haine est enterrée
L'heure des miracles est née
L'amour est éternel
Courage mes beaux, mes belles
So it is yours to sing
My child, my wild brightling
With the love born in the cradle of time
[Chorus]
Requiem
Requiem
The question is not if
It was always when
But go on, go on my child
Hope is a prairie fire
Set your embers on the summer wind
Requiem
Requiem
The question is not if
It was always when
But go on, go on my child
Hope is a prairie fire
Set your embers on the summer wind
Set your embers on the summer wind
