The Price for PrideA Fair Price for Pride
  
The negotiations have ended,The negotiations have ended
Just a waste of tears.Crying tears was just a waste
Weapons are thrown on the back,Weapons shouldered
Fear is hidden from the face.Fear on faces concealed
The cardboards on the windows are lifted,Windows boarded
Whose mistakes will be avenged on us?Whose mistakes are we paying for?
Small hands pay the priceIt's the little ones that have to pay [1]
When a fair price for pride is decided.when a fair price for pride is decided
  
Take the earth from below,Take the soil from beneath my feet
Take the starsTake away the stars
And the sky aboveand the sky above
Now I'm trying to calculateas I'm trying to calculate
The price for our livesa fair price for our lives
I can bow to anyoneI can bow down to anyone
Or I can leave here.or I can leave this place behind.
Bring back my love,Bring back my love,
Only then will I win.that's the only way I can win
  
How can I teach the children?How can I teach the children
Only the weak can stop a quarrel.that only the meek [2] are allowed to end rows
If only I could tell:I wish I could tell them
Will dad come back?,whether dad is coming back
And what it is given for.and the reason why we sacrfice,
We carry our own sons to the grave.carry our sons to the grave
Show me those treasuresThose are treasures I want to possess, [3]
And fulfill one’s wish.and I want one wish to come true
  
Take the earth from below,Take the soil from beneath my feet
Take the starsTake away the stars
And the sky aboveand the sky above
Now I'm trying to calculateas I'm trying to calculate
The price for our livesa fair price for our lives
I can bow to anyoneI can bow down to anyone
Or I can leave here.or I can leave this place behind.
Bring back my love,Bring back my love,
Only then will I win.that's the only way I can win.
[1] lit. little hands pay for the fair price of pride.
[2] lit. weak
[3] Understanding the meaning of the above things, probably.
