[期待民主中国:1986] 自由之光照亮西藏

自由之光

7月28日，西藏著名画家Tashi Norbu在多伦多市中心的一个艺术中心，举办其当代艺术作品的现场绘画，并举行诗歌朗诵及演唱会。

该艺术表演是为了让人们关注并理解自焚藏人的壮举及西藏的命运。

我朗诵了专为这个活动创作的英文诗歌。

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
