They cross the seas with hearts so brave,
Leaving behind the lands that gave,
Shelter once, now torn by strife,
Seeking anew the chance for life.
In foreign lands, they dare to dream,
Of peace and hope, a steady stream,
With every step, they carve their way,
Through nights so dark, to find the day.
The children laugh, though skies are gray,
They find new friends, come what may,
In every face, a story told,
Of courage vast, and spirits bold.
So let us open hearts and doors,
To those who flee from distant shores,
For in their eyes, we see the light,
Of human strength, enduring might.
