Clutching passport in hand and large suitcase in tow,
A career that awaits and a future that glows,
They take flight in great comfort to a future awaits,
To begin a new life in a land they’ve embraced.
Empty-handed and shivering from cold and despair,
Leaving good life behind, fleeing war, mortal fear,
Seeking refuge and shelter wherever they can,
From the bombs and the smoke and the death and the rain.
Two good people are brothers who travel with hope,
To improve life and prospects in a new world beyond,
Different pasts, different reasons, but common their fight,
Step away from the darkness and into the light.
