Promises wrapped in a web of dreams, hidden beneath the facade of lies,  
The path soaked in the people’s tears, governance is nothing but hypocrisy.  
I’ve rushed to your shelter, you’ve come to mine,  
This is how politics plays its twisted mime.  

Promises when needed, lives are mere tokens of joy,  
The wait never ends, new strategies break each day.  
The helpless cry, heavy is the sky,  
A parade of corpses in the city’s heart, while rulers laugh with innocence on display.  

The royal palace stands on the blood of the people, dust of despair coats the streets,  
Justice is sold in the name of law, the land has turned into a field of greed.  
Election games are nothing but a farce, the citizens' hearts tremble with fear,  
The ballot box rigged with deceit, democracy bound in chains of inequality severe.  

A mother stands weeping by the road, waiting endlessly,  
When will her child return?  
Politics tells the tale of exploitation written in blood,  
No one keeps count.  
Golden promises, hollow within, the sound of shattered dreams echoes,  
Leaders come and leaders go, yet the people remain neglected, low.  

In the eyes of the jobless youth, only resentment resides,  
Fields drenched in promises of rain, but no crops arise.  
Words laced with venom create new temptations,  
Beneath the glitter lies the mark of suffering.  
The mask of politics unveils, sinking everything into the darkness within.  

Mountains of injustice rise, stifling the voice of truth,  
Power is seized by the hands of deception,  
Scars of betrayal cut deep,  
The chains of oppression know no release,  
Freedom knocks, but the people, trapped in delusion,  
Find no address for hope, no relief.  

Leaders wear masks, changing with the times,  
We keep running, chasing new hope lines.  
I’ve rushed to your shelter, you’ve come to mine,  
This is how politics plays its endless mime.

In the depths of the heart, the fire of rebellion burns bright, not just destruction, but the joy of creation,  
Waves of unrest break, giving rise to pure desire, birthing peace.  
In the silence of weeping, struggles are born, carrying the radiant light of hope,  
Invisible dreams weave through the streams of blood, washing away old memories.  

The fire of rebellion isn’t just a symbol of destruction; in its flames, new horizons are built,  
Hearts as hard as stone crumble under the weight of sorrow, blood-soaked wars veiled in the mist of grief.  
Unbearable pain transforms into strength, the tale of a new world being rebuilt,  
The emptiness of rebellion, cleansed by the blood of the rebel, brings back the winds of peace, the sun of freedom.  

Not the shadow of sorrow, nor the sound of war, but love hidden in the buds of flowers,  
In the flames of fire, invisible dreams awaken, painting the future in the hands of time.  
The struggles wipe away the scars of the past, reviving the message of a new dawn,  
The rage of the earth reveals itself in the yellow harvests of peace.  

The flame of rebellion erases weariness, guiding us to the peak of freedom,  
Silent prayers, deep in the heart, weave tales of rebirth,  
In the darkness of night, the sound of weeping merges with the ocean of peace,  
Rebellion is not just a symbol of hurt, it transforms into wings of desire, creating a new horizon.  

Eyes filled with emptiness, the day's vow seeks release in the calm beauty of everlasting peace,  
The journey of rebellion does not stop, it waits for the infinite ocean of tranquility.  
In the sky of war, the sun rises with the light of peace, transforming aspirations into reality,  
Rebellion becomes a symbol of peace, transformed hopes and desires lighting the path to a bright future.

A fleeting, floating, unsettled bird, searching under the blue sky’s shadow,  
Blending with the winds of the heart, it silently hides in the horizon’s bustle.  
Like a star in the night sky, it dashes toward endless dreams in the blink of an eye,  
The wings of the bird carry memories of the past, flowing like a river's current.  

It hides in the folds of the waves, soaring freely on an unknown path,  
Blending into the clamor of the clouds, every silent cry becomes the echo of unreachable dreams.  
It never returns, endlessly searching for the riddle of joy in the vast sky.  

Its colorful light fades into the horizon, the past’s charm turns to gray,  
In solitude, it returns to its own shadow, disappearing far into the darkness.  
The air wrapped around its wings swirls, returning to brush against the feathers of a nearby bird.  

Under the shimmering moonlight, with glimmering wings, it hears the call of an unknown path,  
Flying away with eyes full of wonder, toward the distant, infinite boundaries.  
The peaceful river of the lonely night plays with the waves of the water,  
Drawing silent lines in the sky, indifferent and carefree.  

Silent voices float in the wind, seeking a destination beyond the horizon,  
Falling briefly on the unknown path, at the gates of emptiness.  
This fleeting, unconquered bird, shimmering in the light of the stars,  
Spreads its wings in the wind, breaking through the shadows of the silent night,  
Carrying the songs of imagination on the wings of dreams.
