Bird of a Brave Man
Confined in a stiff concrete wall
A box with the window bars
His brand-new residence
The guard took back the handcuffs!
In this concealed house
Provided a few basics utilities
Besieged by the cameras
Will let him endure the breathing.
Detained in a stiff concrete wall
Blocked off from his compatriots
Those who have been oppressed
By the antique monarchy
Those who protested the dictatorship
Called in peace for justice
And the primary human rights;
In a single life!
A bird flew by
Then turned back to encircling
Like they knew each other
Long time worked together
Wished to boost the unfree friend.
From now on, just the brave heart
Can break over the high wall
To follow the white dove!
