STOP IT
Stop it
The riffle you held against my head
My body you almost left lifeless
Why did you have to scare me?
What did I do?
Just to deserve this?
Aha! Now I see that you were serious
You weren’t joking
Really you are industrious
Industrious just to destroy me
My joy to take away
You have killed my mother
The woman who carried me in her for nine months
The woman who bore great pain
Just for me to be present today
Why have you done this?
Your AK-47, its trigger you pulled
My father’s brain you blew out
On his blood he lay
Right on the cold floor
The cold floor of my home
My siblings you stabbed
Six times on the chest
Heartlessly you poured cold water
Right on their writhing bodies
Why did you do this?
You! You have done this to my neighbor too
You are not a human being
Even calling you an animal
Will be an insult to animals
You great monster
My motherland you have destroyed
Blood, all over you have shed
Weapon you carry for no reason
No! I am mistaken
It is for your selfish reason
Stop right there
Enough is enough
You have had your great share
You have killed and destroyed enough
Now put down your weapon and return to your home
If you don’t
We’ll descend on you with our army
We will fight you
We will not sit back anymore and watch
As you continue to destroy our motherland
