Beat of Darkness


arise! oh  nation,
let the dawn lift you with its full strength --
a new day, a new beginning.
a candle glowing in the dark my be dim
but we can see the biggest star radiating from afar.

Blessing to you, who seek out for the light;
shame on you,  who  work  in the dark.

though the crooks may have uprooted the daisies
and drowned them to the deepest sea;
though the crooks became wild swimming
in their  bloody pool,

may it not terrorize our soul,
may it not tear our skin and sliver our bones.

the rain that showers our  hills and prairies,
will surely soak our  parched  land,
will rejuvenate  our battered  mountains and valleys;

and dawn will come and every dewdrop  will gather
to nourish  new seeds, to nourish our souls;

a new life is born,  a new hope begins.
