City of truth

O Night beneath the moon 

Filled with light; 

In whom I seek release 

For whom I seek redemption 

I, the wanderer in the streets 

Of a city called Freedom. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

These swords have been crossed throughout the ages, 

The sages speak of underlying conflict: this war must stop. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

O Night beneath the moon 

Filled with light; 

In whom I seek opportunity, 

For whom I seek redemption 

I, the wanderer in the streets 

Of a city called Hope

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There is more blood on the land than in the veins of the men and women and children; there are more vultures in the sky than doves in the wind: 

this is the age of war. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

O Night beneath the moon 

Filled with light; 

In whom I seek solace 

For whom I seek redemption 

I, the wanderer in the streets 

Of a city called Peace

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Our children are dying; they lay in ragged clothes, their eyes closed with suffering and their hearts lay dying on the streets; God bless their souls. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

O Night beneath the moon 

Filled with light; 

In whom I seek justice

For whom I seek redemption 

I, the wanderer in the streets 

Of a city, 

The city of truth
