To all those who lost their lives in the Earthquake that ripped Pakist
Six little children, hid beneath their desk
Waiting to be found
Time stood still
No one came around
Six little children, hid beneath their desk
They were brave and did not cry
Hope flickered to despair
Nobody knew where to try
Six little children, hid beneath their desk
In pitch black darkness praying
Daddy, mummy, where have you gone
Can you not hear us, calling?
Six little children, hid beneath their desk
No one knew of their plight
People went about their chores
They began to lose the fight
Six little children, hid beneath their desk
No water, no food, no light nothing at all
The world watched in silence
No one heard them call
Six little children, hid beneath their desk
Seeking shelter in vain
Alas! One of many true tales
Of anguish, unbearable pain
Six little children, hid beneath their desk
Waiting to be found
Time stood still
No one came around
