Light For Freedom
SHENG Xue
I opened my eyes in the morning
The room was dark
I opened the window to welcome the breeze
The sky was dark
I opened the door to greet the green woods
The mountain was dark
I opened my heart to embrace freedom
The whole world was dark
I don't want much
I just hope the yak in the mountains can freely run
I just hope the eagle in the sky can freely fly
I just want the monks in the temple to chant their rituals
I just want to see His Holiness at least once in my life
I keep all these as secrete dreams in my heart
I dare not ask
But it's too dark
I can no longer remember
What light looks like
I can no longer remember
The touch of sunshine
I can no longer remember
The feeling of a sweet night
I can no longer remember
The color of prayer flags
Darkness blew up
Darkness filled up the whole space
and tore up every sun's ray apart
and blocked every breath
Darkness built up and filled my emotions and my heart
I want to run away
I want to run, run,run
But the temple was demolished to pieces
Debris piled up like a bloody hill
The road leading to Lhasa is full of dark muzzle
Streets full of tanks with high barrels
Where can I hide
What should I try
Who will listen to my cries
And how can I just die
I saw a dim light in a death cup
I should light myself up
Light me up
Light me up
Light me up
I'd rather die for my ideals
If I cannot live with my beliefs
Light me up with style
Light me up for a life more real
The light is getting bigger
The flames grow ever higher
The Himalayas become a prayer
And forever fear is with me forever
Light me up
The sounds of flames resonates with the wind
Light me up
The fiery blaze dancing like sea waves
The burning sea waves surround me
Kiss me
Touch me
And hold me once again
Like a baby
But, I must return
I have to come back with the light
The light for believer of religion
The light for dignity action
The light for culture celebration
The light for language decision
The light for human rights
And the light for freedom determination
Light me up
Light the mountain up
Light the river up
Light the sky up
Let the darkness been burn up
Light the sun up
Let it shine
Let it shine for all lives
Let it shine in Tibet
Shine Tibet until it is bright
