Stolen Generation

They were taken away from their Mothers and Fathers;
They were taken away from their Country's religion;
They were taken away from their Country's traditions;
They were taken away from their Country's culture.
When they arrived they changed their names;
When they arrived they changed their traditions;
When they arrived they changed their cultures;
When they arrived they changed their clothes.
While they were there they were forced to get jobs;
While they were there they got presents and toys;
While they were there they stayed with families;
While they were there they got less respect.
While they were in Britain their parents were crying;
While they were in Britain their huts felt empty;
While they were in Britain it was never the same;
While they were in Britain their parents were devastated.
