Hail peace <br />Hail peace <br />Though hell should bar the way <br />Let’s all pray. <br /> <br />No more tears on our faces <br />No more blood on our streets <br /> <br />With tearful eyes <br />Lacerated chest <br />And blood everywhere <br />In the streets <br />We spent days <br />On the bed of agony. <br /> <br />The sins of our past <br />Be buried and forgotten <br />Let’s write a fresh chapter <br />In the scripts of the world <br />Wearing fresh hearts <br />And see, <br />The terror will not raise its <br />Ugly head again. <br /> <br />Hail peace <br />Hail peace <br />Though hell should bar the way <br />Let’s all pray. <br /> <br /><br />Ponniah Ganeshan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/hail-peace/
