How did we get here?
I wonder why we are here
From the place of glory
We are suddenly lowered into gory
Its mysterious we are now in abyss
A once sanctimonious people
Who walked in love, peace, unity
Honesty and fear of God
Now drinks water of corruption
We are also dagger drawn against each other
No more trust, no more respect
Our cherished cultures are polluted
Our white garment are soiled with palm oil
In the name of modernity
We are now far apart from each other
Our minds and hearts now varied
Everyone now bear their 'crosses'
Things are not only fallen apart
Everything good is now strange
In the land once adored
How then did we get here?

I would like to translate this poem
All the simplicity of life is no longer enjoyed. So many trying to do good for us all yet too many wanting to destroy with greed. Thank You
