We Will Survive The Virus
written by: Eduardo de Bosco
When the inks of writers untiringly bleed
And readers with them follow the preventive instructions
We will survive the virus
When prevention is unmet by rejection
And all mankind in Union stand
We will Survive the virus
When fear is overcome by care
And man drags the virus from our years
We will survive the virus
So, in hope we look to the day
When the chicken crows a new dawn
And chirping birds above us dance
As temple bells are rung again
And joyful noise from playgrounds resound
Then we’ll know that we survived the virus
