Cry the Pain Lyrics

By Reuben Kigame

Lyrics

Cry the pain across the hill

For a city that is burning

Cry the pain and then be still

And help the people mourning

Did they have to build a bomb

To tell the hatred story

And did we have to dig a tomb

To quell the mystery?


CHORUS


Cry the pain and join the song

For the City in the Sun (Nairobi)

Cry the pain but then be strong

God’s justice will be done!

Cry the pain for the Haven of Peace (Dar es Salaam)

For the mother, father and child

For one day all the pain will cease

From the city to the wild.


Cry the pain across the sea

For they cannot save them all

Lay aside your cup of tea

And hear the children call

Cry the pain and don’t forget

The unity in tragedy

Cry the pain and DON’T YOU LET

This lesson roll away.


CHORUS


Cry the pain and join the song

For the City in the Sun (Nairobi)

Cry the pain but then be strong

God’s justice will be done!

Cry the pain for the Haven of Peace (Dar es Salaam)

For the mother, father and child

For one day all the pain will cease

From the city to the wild.


O Cry the pain and join the song

For the City in the Sun (Nairobi)

Cry the pain but then be strong

God’s justice will be done!

Cry the pain for the Haven of Peace (Dar es Salaam)

For the mother, father and child

For one day all the tears will cease

From the city to the wild.
