i have a dream...


you may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
--John Lennon

i have a dream...
a dream that someday there'll be no beggar in the street
no more vagabonds who wanders and asking for your alms
a dream that someday there'll be no crime of coercion
no people are killed just to have something to eat

i have a dream...
a dream that someday the people are disciplined
no people are stealing just to find some medicine
a dream that someday there'll be no corrupt politician
the leaders are noble & just plan for the betterment of the nation

i have a dream...
a dream that someday that justice may be served fair and square
no more innocent people sobbing inside a jail
a dream that someday there'll be no discrimination against any nation
a respect is given to any person, any religion

i have a dream...
a dream that someday there'll be no women raped, abused or murdered
a world is a better place and safe haven for everyone
a dream that someday there'll be no drug abuses
no crime committed because people is in better state of mind

i have a dream...
a dream that someday our country is rich and developed
no filipinos are jobless & the government has paid all of our debts
a dream that someday there'll be no filipinos are slave in other country
'coz our wages & salaries are well enough to feed the family

i have a dream...
a dream that someday we can give aid to developing country
unlike today that we beg for any aid and donations from countries we considered deity
a dream that someday we have the luxury to go to countries in europe
not being a worker but a tourists who enjoy the life's beauty

i have a dream...
a dream that someday that filipinos are admire by the western country
not only in entertainment but also in the field of science, medicine & technology
a dream that someday there'll be no rallies against the government
'coz our leaders are responsible and we have constant economic growth

i have a dream...
a dream that someday there'll be no people living under the bridge
no children are chilling in the coldness of the evening
a dream that someday there'll be no people are illiterate
the government funded education & can support anybody who wants to study

i have a dream...
a dream that someday that graft & corruption would be history
our leaders are god fearing & a true servant of the country
a dream that someday there'll be no farm converted into mall
the farmers earned more & no need to sell their soil

i have a dream...
a dream that someday we're all enjoying the true meaning of peacefulness
no crimes, no guns, no rebels, just love, patience and kindness
a dream that someday our children realize these dreams of mine
that would bring so much tranquility and happiness to me and the place i live in before i lie

they say that dreams are for those who are sleeping
and i know that many of our dreams can never be reality
but i choose to dream for me and my country
'coz i believe, that to accomplish great things...a dream is the first thing to be.

"When we are dreaming alone it is only a dream. When we are dreaming with others, it is the beginning of reality." - Dom Helder Camara
