Mother crying eyes
Your tears will never wash away
The memory of the night
They took your child away
Father with no weapon
Beaten to the ground
His naked body lies
But his spirit is unbroken
So on we go and on we go
So on we go we sing a song of children gone
What is the mind
That can torture and blind
The needs of a child are love and attention
What is the man
That can slaughter the lamb
The seed and the child thirst for direction
Tula tula baba
Sing a song of children gone
Tula tula baba
Sing a song of children gone
What is the heart that can tear apart
Hurting the child is hurting the children
What is the eye without a vision
The innocent look upon with anger
Tula tula baba
Sing a song of children gone
Tula tula baba
Sing a song of children gone
Say no, say no, say no to the trial of the innocent
The disappearing flight of the night is no guardian angel
Wo the disappearing flight of the night
Is no guardian angel
So on we go and on we go so on we go
We sing a song of children
So on we go...

So on we go
And on we go
So on we go we sing a song of children gone
So on we go
And on we go
So on we go
We sing a song of children gone
