Many, many people live

on this brilliant blue planet.


Many, many light spots light up the earth,

making such a tiny planet

glow and shine in the universe.


But one day,

those light spots collided, and

some of them were extinguished.


In a dark corner of the planet,

a corner full of dust,

the light spots cried out in despair.


Why do we need to fight each other?


We are the same.

We have the same strong body.


We have a heart longing for music and mythology.

We believe in infinite possibilities.


We love the gorgeous fireworks, but

we hate the rolling fire which will burn and destroy people’s peaceful lives.


We want the light of peace

to stay permanently in our hearts.

But, because people have ambitions and greed

as big as the stomachs of ugly monsters,

the cruel knife and gun

have taken our families and clansmen away and away.


With heavy steps,

the planet and its inhabitants

just wait,

wait with fears and regrets,

for the whole world

going dark.
