I Pity The Poor Immigrant |
I pity the poor immigrant |
Who wishes he would’ve stayed home, |
Who uses all his power to do evil |
But in the end is always left so alone. |
That man whom with his fingers cheats |
And who lies with ev’ry breath, |
Who passionately hates his life |
And likewise, fears his death. |
I pity the poor immigrant |
Whose strength is spent in vain, |
Whose heaven is like Ironsides, |
Whose tears are like rain, |
Who eats but is not satisfied, |
Who hears but does not see, |
Who falls in love with wealth itself |
And turns his back on me. |
I pity the poor immigrant |
Who tramples through the mud, |
Who fills his mouth with laughing |
And who builds his town with blood, |
Whose visions in the final end |
Must shatter like the glass. |
I pity the poor immigrant |
When his gladness comes to pass. |
