	作词 : Ray, Smith
	Suffer not your neighbor's affliction
	Suffer not your neighbor's paralysis
	But extend your hand, extend your hand
	Lest you vanish in the city and be but a trace
	Just a vanished ghost and your legacy
	All the things you knew, science, mathematics, thought
	Severely weakened like irrigation systems
	In the tired veins forming from the
	Tigris and
	EuphratesIn the realm of peace, all the world revolved
	All the world revolved around a perfect circle
	City of Baghdad, city of scholars
	Empirical humble center of the world
	City in ashes, city of
	BaghdadCity of
	Baghdad, abrasive aloof
	Oh, in Mesopotamia aloofness ran deep
	Deep in the veins of the great rivers
	That form the base of
	EdenAnd the tree the tree of knowledge
	Held up its arms to the sky
	All the branches of knowledge
	All the branches of knowledge, cradling, cradling
	Civilization in the realm of peace
	All the world revolved around a perfect circle
	Oh, Baghdad, center of the world
	City of ashes with its great mosques
	Erupting from the mouth of
	God, rising from the ashes
	Like a speckled bird, splayed against the mosaic sky
	Oh, clouds around, we created the zero
	But we mean nothing to you, you would believe
	That we are just some mystical tale
	We are just a swollen belly that gave birth to
	SindbadScheherazade, we gave birth
	Oh, oh, to the zero, the perfect number
	We invented the zero and we mean nothing to you
	Our children run through the streets
	And you sent your flames, your shooting stars
	Shock and awe, shock and awe
	Like some, some imagined warrior production
	Twenty-first century, no chivalry involved
	No Bushido
	Oh, the code of the
	West long gone
	Never been, where does it lie?
	You came, you came through the
	WestAnnihilated a people and you come to us
	But we are older than you, you come, you wanna
	You wanna come and rob the cradle
	Of civilization and you read, yet you read
	You read genesis, you read of the tree
	You read of the tree beget by
	GodThat raised its branches into the sky
	Every branch of knowledge
	Of the cradle of civilization
	Of the banks of the
	Tigris and the
	EuphratesOh, in
	Mesopotamia aloofness ran deep
	The face of
	Eve turning, what sky did she see
	What garden beneath her feet, the one you drill
	You drill pulling the blood of the earth
	Little droplets of oil for bracelets, little jewels
	Sapphires, you make bracelets
	Round your own world, we are weeping tears
	Rubies, we offer them to you
	We are just your
	Arabian nightmare
	We invented the zero but we mean nothing to you
	Your Arabian nightmare
	City of stars, city of scholarship
	Science city of ideas, city of light, city
	City of ashes that the great
	CaliphWalked through his naked feet formed a circle
	And they built a city, a perfect city of
	BaghdadIn the realm of peace and all the world revolved
	And they invented and they mean nothing to you
	Nothing to you, nothing
	Go to sleep, go to sleep my child
	Go to sleep and
	I'll sing you a lullaby
	A lullaby for our city, a lullaby of
	BaghdadGo to sleep, sleep my child
	Sleep, sleep, run, run
	You sent your lights, your bombs
	You sent them down on our city, shock and awe
	Like some crazy
	TV showThey're robbing the cradle of civilization
	They're robbing the cradle of civilization
	They're robbing the cradle of civilization
	Suffer not the paralysis of your neighbor
	Suffer not but extend your hand
