Issue 

@poetry = Someone is crying in the dark,

She lost her son (a monk who stood up for people)

Someone had woken up in the middle of the night,

She longs for her rights as a human being.

@poetry = Someone had been beaten to death on the road,

For he was holding a signboard.

@poetry = Someone is praying in Insein jail,

He was arrested and tortured all day.

@poetry = They have sacrificed for their country,

But their country has not been freed.

@poetry = We have to hand over their works,

If you dare to fight for their rights!

@poetry = We have to follow their way,

Which they've walked with hope, love and prayers.

@poetry = We will fight to reach our goal,

@poetry = Don't wait until tommorrow!
