O! This Land Is Not Mine

I can never believe that this land is not mine
I will remember its sea, its lakes, its forests wild
I will remember its desert wide
I will remember its pine trees, the sunset and sunrise
I will remember its azure sky

I know I was not born in this land
I know I came here to live
I know I am nobody here
At best a small star among many to shine
I know I am a stranger,
The biggest truth is
O! this land is not mine..
