A million souls have passed her by
and felt her beauty brush the sky.
Her life was spared to beautify
and so her boughs appear to cry.
She stands alone to justify,
surrounding walls that amplify
polluted echoes that belie
and so her boughs appear to cry.
One in a million will descry
injustice and the reason why
a single tree does not apply
and so her boughs appear to cry.
A million souls have passed her by
and so her boughs appear to cry.
