Sound of silence - by Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel
Eye of the tiger - by Frankie Sullivan and Jim Peterik

«End the violence» (Sound of silence) - dedicated to the refugees of the world
Verse 1:
Hello rulers of the land
I've come to plead with you again
Cause this vision left me weeping
Haunted me when I was sleeping
And the vision of that poor boy in the sand
Still remains
It's time to end the violence
Verse 2:
In endless streams but yet alone
Unwelcome everywhere they roam
In the blue light of the TV screen
I turned the volume up so I could scream
And my consciousness awoke
As the darkest night
Turned into light
I swore to stop the violence
Verse 3:
And as I traveled here I saw
Hundreds of thousands on the shores
And now I beg that you start talking
All this fighting gave you nothing
People begging for their lives, but you never hear
I wish you'd dare
To put an end to violence

The original - «Sound of silence»
Verse 1:
Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
Verse 2:
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by
The flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence
Verse 3:
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence
