When greed is promoted
As a holy creed
And what belongs to one
Is violently taken for all
It’s time to cry “Never Again”
When oratory becomes defamatory
And the verbal insanity of a Hitler captivates
The sincerity of the gullible
To do things that are horrible
It’s time to cry “Never Again”
When hatred is hidden
in legality
And the madness of the multitude
Gains entry at the doors of democracy.
It’s time to cry “Never Again”
Never again to Foeticide
Never again to Infanticide
Never again to Gendercide
Never again to Genocide
When the mass graves
Of the innocent
No longer provokes the outrage
Of those who must not be silent
It is time to shout “Never Again”
