Cry for the refugees of Kosovo
For the children of India __ shed a tear
Weep for the internment of the Japanese
For the hunger, the pestilence
the fear
and cruelties of humanity
towards humanity
Kenya, the innocent -- cry out! Tear my heart out!

The cleansing of the Jews
The hatred of colour__a man's skin!
Irish folk who fathomed more than stormy seas
Tears flow freely for Poland’s orphans
Flood victims of Chile, I weep 10,000 tears
Railroad tracks rusted in China’s blood, sweat and tears
__ all these cruelties

Tear my heart out!
The lady of the night, caught in her unwanted vise
A lonely bag lady __ pushing her basket of vacant dreams
while abused children cry out in vain
O __ the sadness in their pain!
And I will never understand
so-called human beings of this earth
as I march to the beat of my own private heart
with each step of my life
trying to change what I can
Still __ the tears line this face for my fellow man
