Lay Your Thick White Blanket on our Land

Lay your thick white blanket on our land

 

Cover up the corruption

The beggars scavenging for food

 

Lay your thick white blanket on our land

 

It freezes the lies in mid-air

Gives the children a smile

Freezes the parents’ tears

 

Let the thick white blanket stay on this earth
