My eyes have seen A tree with roots in the sky Branches in the soil And flowers in the roots My eyes have seen A woman impregnated by her new born baby A ****** ********** A blind tour guide My eyes have seen A buffalo gazing in the desert A lion hurting in the ocean A monkey breast-feeding a snake A tiger helping the zebra cross the road A crocodile offering a mouth full of water to a thirsty calf My eyes have seen The moon in the day The sun in the night The lunar and solar eclipse simultaneously The full brightness of the stars in the day My eyes have seen A leader cutting the throat of his surrogates And being praise for paying so much for their burials All these I have seen in my nation My eyes have seen My mouth has sang the song of sorrow My eyes have rained the tears of agony And my legs were left to dance in the pool of my tears And my pen dancing in the pool of it ink My eyes have seen I need to drink from the chatting well to forget what my eyes have seen

MY EYES HAVE SEEN
My eyes have seen A tree with roots in the sky Branches in the soil And flowers in the roots My eyes have seen A woman impregnated by her new born baby A ****** ********** A blind tour guide My eyes have seen A buffalo gazing in the desert A lion hurting in the ocean A monkey breast-feeding a snake A tiger helping the zebra cross the road A crocodile offering a mouth full of water to a thirsty calf My eyes have seen The moon in the day The sun in the night The lunar and solar eclipse simultaneously The full brightness of the stars in the day My eyes have seen A leader cutting the throat of his surrogates And being praise for paying so much for their burials All these I have seen in my nation My eyes have seen My mouth has sang the song of sorrow My eyes have rained the tears of agony And my legs were left to dance in the pool of my tears And my pen dancing in the pool of it ink My eyes have seen I need to drink from the chatting well to forget what my eyes have seen
