Death To The Flowers

Death to the flowers
Who were trampled down by the marches
Death to the flowers
Who were buried in the mud
Death to the flowers
Who lost their colour
Death to the flowers
Who choked out others
Death to the flowers
Who were crushed
Death to the flowers
Who did not have a name
And
Death to the flowers
Who were given in vain
