Since I Am Alive
Since I do have both eyes
Let me admire the world:
Its lines, lights and colors.
I will watch over the world leaders,
How did they come into power?
Find out the fate of their followers!
Since I do have a mouth
Let me eat and speak out.
I will talk about the leader’s corruption;
Compare with the people’s living condition!
Since I do have both ears
Let me hear the human and nature songs.
I will heed the leader’s dictating;
Listen to people’s weeping and tearing!
Since I am Alive
I wish to watch, to talk and to listen;
I want to savor freedom and human rights.
Let me choose the leader that I delight!
