Orphans

Sergio Umbria

Every building, every painting, every old book
That is destroyed or lost, makes us a little
More orphans. It impoverishes us

By destroying a building we are killing its history
That story that just seeing the structure already betrayed
Alone, those books that were created and written by those
Writers who lived centuries ago tell the story of what
Lived, to destroy it is to forget what we have lived

Every building, every painting, every old book
That is destroyed or lost, makes us a little
More orphans. It impoverishes us

That's why the world is being orphaned
I know their history, their identity, their idiosyncrasies, because
Its cultural base is dying with so much modernism
And consumerism teaches us that this no longer works, because
It suits them more fools like sheep than lions
Well cultured

Every building, every painting, every old book
That is destroyed or lost, makes us a little
More orphans. It impoverishes us
