The Tsunami Song

The Tsunami Song - written by one of the Young Hope children, translated by a family friend.

My heart will tell a story.
It is a true story which showed God's wrath on this world.

In the month of December,
A month which is sacred and pure,
Which we only symbolise externally by clothing & also show obedience by abstinence.
There was a large noise and I heard it.
The noise of tsunami at this time, which destroyed us totally in a few seconds.

God save me, God please save all of us.
Save us from the giant waves.

Our bodies were destroyed snd we felt the sorrow.

What is the meaning of tsunami ?
It finished all of us eternally.

Our land, weather, houses and even our gardens were destroyed.
That salty water swallowed our nation.
Our nation changed totally.
Those waves hit us eternally.
We were all destroyed.

Our neighbours, cousins, relatives were taken from us.
That moment eternally destroyed us and went off.
My heart wiul tell a story.
It is a true story which showed God's wrath on this world.
