To Soar Amidst Trials
Oh silent angel, will this love-triangle never end,
Each blow, each agony, each suffering can steal
The woman you are to be, how long must you wait?
Will you never find triumph, will this despair be your fate?
The power of will is within reach , within life's grasp.
Summon this courage until all seasons' flowers bloom
And remember how precious is your self- esteem;
For what a fruitful destiny the years can fulfill,
To win by soaring above a plight harming your rights
Fighting to hold onto dignity and free choice.
So allow that hidden roar to chant a brave song
From angel to Phoenix, rise and create a liberated path!
