Mourning Doves of Darfur

The poor dove weeps
Her nest is torn,
Her eggs shattered on the ground,
Her babies are taken.

Where the wild man rules, destruction follows.
The wild man rules
In Darfur.

Fly away, little dove,
Fly away, while it is day,
To the cities of refuge,
Where the night is peace,
and the mourning shall be comforted.
