A Young Protestor Shot
The police come forward with their trucks
Protesters draw back they are sitting ducks
My sister shot a blow at the back of her head
Ten days later she was pronounced dead
The military coup in Mayanmar she couldn't abide
She only wanted freedom and now she has died
Fell to the ground as the shot was fired
Her courage and bravery has to be admired
My sister died a heroine I will continue her cause
She didn't die in vain and didn't break any laws
Rest in peace this loving sister of mine
Forever in my heart you will always be my sunshine
