Why? / poem by Martyniuk Natalia / Savchyk Anna

Time passes. In our generations
And still, through centuries of darkness,
Happiness and pain remain unchanged.
The question is acutely: Why?
Why are there so many tears in this world?
Why are there so many worries around?
Can grief be removed from the Earth?
How does God look at all this from Heaven?
Why does He allow wars and famine?
Doesn't He feel sorry for mothers?
Doesn't He sympathize with orphans?
Why has the weed of sin blossomed all around?
Is He powerless to remove all evil?
To say "No" to troubles and sorrows?
Where can we find the answer today?
It is so difficult for us to admit to ourselves...
God is Good, He has not changed a bit,
Since the days of Eden He gave people freedom.
With what sadness He looked at the world,
When that world crucified Jesus...
Instead of love, they chose Barabbas,
Evil became our everyday and familiar.
The right to freedom has remained,
The pen has passed into our hands!
We write history today
And we ourselves shape this world...
If we have rejected the warmth of the Lord,
That is why the ice in our souls will not melt...
Responsibility has fallen on our shoulders,
For all suffering, joy or beauty.
For the tears of widows, for the smiles of children...
Will we really drive a nail into Christ again?
There is a will to choose how we should be.
It is worth starting with ourselves now!
Because evil and grief are the antidote,
Let us write a masterpiece!
Let us shine like the sun in the darkness!
We can change the world ourselves,
If we don't stop loving,
If we don't trample the flowers of faith.
And so that the Earth is filled with songs,
And so that good times finally come,
May peace and harmony be between us,
May God always be within us.
