When I reminisce about all those years, I see many things.
|
||
|
|
Life and death strung together like the mountains and valleys in which we lived.
|
||
|
|
There was wealth and opulence, but also tribulation and loss.
|
||
|
|
There was laughter and ong, and there was also tears.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
But even more than tears, blood was shed.
|
||
|
|
And so many were left to their unadorned graves, unburied.
|
||
|
|
But to us, death was but another journey.
|
||
|
|
And close by the darkness through which we strode, there was also light.
|
||
|
|
The Light of life and immortality.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
And after all, when I reminisce about those years, I mostly remember our songs.
|
||
|
|
We sang as if to drown out the sound of clashing swords,
|
||
|
|
as if the battle cries fell silent.
|
||
|
|
Because war had lost its meaning.
