The world was trudging through

The waves of blood,

You paved the way of how

The ruinous sounds of

A pair of swords can be

Transformed into a loving bell

Where the sparkles of love dance.

O, Jesus! You gave the hollow men

 Most noise of wisdom;

They realized knowledge can't be found

On the pages of coloring books

But be found within like the seeds sleep

Into the dark room to come out

In full bloom some day.

The birds dared not to sing aloud

Among the wailing voices,

The rain dared not to fall

On the congested blood, was feared of

Losing her continual way.

The flowerbuds could not bloom in full,

Thought of losing their innocent beauty.

O, God Jesus! You gave the birds

The invincible voice,

The unremitting paths to the rain,

The eternal beauty to the sweet flower buds.
