promise

I feel scared mom they says , 
how will twist our neck they. 
Come on, mother, run away, 
run away, run away,
Although they are saying
we are the two buds in a tree-
then what is this, mother-
disappearances riots, murders,  
are all these may fake be?
Oh, mother, 
why are you so pale in your tears? 
Don't be afraid, hey, 
I will be as  bright as the sun-
Why should we run away? 
I will hold arms in my hands,
I will fight, mom, 
I will do my best.
I promise you this morn.
