Abstract

(I) We, previously, were siblings from the same mother Whereas we were from different fathers, we cared for each other We formed the Warsaw Pact and defended our other siblings together We loved and cherished one another Then, you level accusations against me that are groundless The basis you provide for annexing one of my children is truthless The people you claim you’re fighting for are now homeless Therefore, your combat against me and my people is needless What will you gain after axing my men? Why are you chasing guiltless children and women? Why are you disturbing the peace of my old men and women? Where is my destiny without my young men? Cease the combat, for our lives are frozen Cutoff the contempt, for love is golden II Broken Trust I gave you your freedom when our mother died in our sight I shared all the property we inherited equally without any fight I paid you money for gas passage without any plight In that regard, I expected you to defend our pride But, you broke our trust Brother, your decision to go to bed with them is disgust Baffling relative, you forgot that my ammunitions are robust Blood-warm fellow, in your eyes I perceive mistrust Tell me: Why do you want to bond with our adversaries? Tell me: What is the motive behind your mysteries? Take your time and assess the agony we suffered from their miseries Terminate your alliance with those mercenaries Stop this treachery, for our nemeses are mendacious Stop putting your broken trust in them, for their position is precarious
