Youth Pledge

what makes you want to create your own country?
do you born as a king
do you want to be praise as a leader
or do you really love your people

what makes you want to runaway from your country?
are you a traitor
are you an adventurer
or are you tricked by someone

what makes you want to raise a war in your own country?
is there some power behind you
is this just business for you
or are you treated unjustly

what makes you want to separate your country?
do these difference bother you
do you take the wrong side of liberty
or does anyone not care about you

we live in one earth
one nation
one language
why should we destroy each other?
