Marek Kučera 

who says: 

That’s what they are - friends, 

 

who seal their bond with music.

Seeing them in the street, in bars

or as in church now.

Not because of that tho

to get closer to God,

but to be closer together.

One to one another.

These people yesterday exactly

they showed the whole world,

how you celebrate life,

how music heals pain

and how she sings to the other world.

They met in the same cathedral,

during which pandemic they helped,

via Dublin Simon Community Organisation,

to the people who are homeless. That’s where this video is from.

 

These people are indirectly teaching us,

that we don't need to be wrapped in a state flag,

to say who we are and where we belong.

It is actually quite simple.

Whether you are Slovak, Irish or Czech,

you just have to do one thing:

Don't think only of yourself.

Keep your hands out of your pockets

and not only think of yourself.

These are Glen

and his friends, a great inspiration,

because they don't only think of themselves.
