the storm has passed
don't you know?
the rain has ceased
the floods recede
the sun is out
and the winds are calm
although the calamity
struck at the hearts of thousands
lives lost and houses crushed
families scarred and torn apart
the people will always rise
together as one
for this spirit of ours
cannot be broken
by man or by nature
because the heavens are by our side
and that's enough to keep fighting
for a brighter tomorrow
