When the war is over
And a boy leaves shelter for bread
The Earth will be blessed with silence
As marvellous as the skies
And in this fragile silence
God will bind times and destinies
The constellations high above will freeze
And a voice will softly say
Mama, I'm back home
Mama, I'm back alive
God has promised us to remit full measure
When the war is over
When the war is over
When the war is over
And my people heal their wounds
The newly-born country
Will cast off the giant's relics
And life will turn out to be
What primarily matters
And like catchers in the rye
We'll turn out to have been fighting
Our own shadow.
Mama, I'm back home
Mama, I'm back alive
God has promised us to remit full measure
When the war is over
When the war is over
When the war ends up
With a unified belief in mercy
Love will stand out sole
As the ultimate religion for everyone
From times to times, bereft of love
On this tiny planet,
We've been not enemies at all
But little dumped children
Mama, I'm back home
Mama, I'm back alive
God has promised us to remit full measure
When the war is over
When the war is over
Mama, I'm back home
Mama, I'm back alive
God has promised us to remit full measure
When the war is over
When the war is over
