If only I could,

I will go to the Universe

Every day and night



If only I could

I will fly through the sky

like when butterflies

are following Jesus-Christ


If only I could,

I will read your mind

Know your truth and lies



If only I could

I will go to the Lord

Asking for pity

For my own country
