Of Darkest Veil
Behind a red curtain
China of darkest veil
once of tranquil tides
now finding tears and travail.
One 'Party' come to power
and a spectre's breath of life
too many souls devoured
from sanguine to bitter strife.
A blind eye turned
and the blood runs still
where countless voices quelled
truth silenced to trill.
When control by terror exposed
and all crimes sanctioned by state
the facade of lies must fall
ending this history of hate.
Beyond a red curtain
China of a darkest veil
come tranquil tides again
when a new light prevails.
A New Sun Rising
China, a new sun rising
piercing shadows and prison walls
let light crowd every heart and corner
where many a conscience comes to fall.
From these darkest of days
and this spectre across our skies
when all clouds fade near a closing hour
China, upon a new sun rising.
