Until The End

By Salai Min Eli


Live free or die trying
Our blood is thicker than the eradicator
Freedom fighters around the world
Live free or die trying from now

Nineteen years must be too short for them
We suffer every tick of the clock
Our hearts are filled with years of pain
We feel deeply in our pounding hearts

When we request for freedom
They decipher freedom as war
We solicit junta peacefully
They shoot us maliciously
Raising our voice for impartiality
Justice is not in junta's vocabulary

Nineteen years of killing innocent
junta is still ravenous for blood
Nineteen years of torturing innocent citizens
junta is pleased with our open wounds
Nineteen years of detaining people
junta still has enough room in jail

Live free or die trying
Our blood is thicker than the eradicator
Freedom fighters around the world
Live free or die trying from now

All the death soon will claim
"Freedom, Justice, Democracy!"
We declare 'til junta fails
"Freedom, Justice, Democracy!"
