I saw children through a fence
Standing by blue canvas tents
I called to them, they move like ghosts
Gliding silent and remote
A girl whose smile was a straight lie
Looked like a creature out of time
A grey boy burned by cigarettes
Pushed his scarred hands through the fence
When I turned, and tried to run
I saw ten thousand children
Were laid in lines wrapped in white sheets
Along a godforsaken street
Ya laou kan,bisi lo na hakil
Wa'dar atir baïd
Wa abil nas, lama tchoufni ted'hak
W ma tis'alch, bledek min fin
Chakl aw loun, aw guins aw din
Mich far'in, kolina bani admin
Wala fi h'roub, wala fi bina h'doud
Fih el ard ha'a li koli nas aychin
Yeaaaah yeaaah
Salam
I prayed an angel from the clouds
Would free the children, free them, oh oh
I prayed and waited for an age
I waited but no angel came
I prayed an angel from the clouds
Would free the children, free them, oh oh
I prayed and waited for an age
I waited but no angel came
I prayed an angel from the clouds
Would free the children, free them, oh oh
I prayed and waited for an age
I waited but no angel came
I prayed an angel from the clouds
Would free the children, free them, oh oh
I prayed and waited for an age
I waited but no angel came
I prayed an angel would come but no angel came
I prayed an angel would come but no angel came
I prayed an angel would come but no angel came
I prayed an angel would come but no angel came
