Despair and Hope : a song from the land of injustice

When right is not a right
without the swords of might
where to will go our way
when shall we see the day

When truth just can't be heard
where freedom's just a word
we can sigh-we can cry
and watch our lives pass by

The darkness of our night
holds truer than the light
our life can't hold a sway
our life offers no way

Let's shun both light and night
hold on to what is right
our shame and our dismay
"this day be gone away!"

When once were flock and herd
now'll go where few have dared
our thoughts-long oh so dry
with eagles' wings shall fly

This twilight rise and fight
the coming of the night
this day we'll fight and pray
and life will hold a sway
