Listen to the rain, widow
   Listen to the rain
   Teardrops of the killed
   Seeking their widows
   Listen to the wind, orphan
   Listen to the wind
   The killed
   Are calling their babies
   
   Oh merciful sovereigns
   All your good intentions
   Tell me are they worth
   A baby's cry?
   Oh what do they do?
   Lord, what do they do?
   Is their justice worth
   A harmless child's blood?
   
   Listen to the rain
   Teardrops of the killed
   Seeking their widows
   Listen to the wind, orphan
   Listen to the wind
   The killed
   Are calling their babies
