where's the compassion?

The true leaders
We don't get it
The healing process
They miss the opportunity

Without Chin Peng and his comrades
We would not get our independence
The British couldn't stomach the war
The hit and run taking its toll

CPM fought the Japanese
Later they fought with the British
To get the independence for Malaya
History will paint that records

Chin Peng was wrong to fight his countrymen
For a wrong he felt he was cheated with his political ambition
In it the emergency war fought mainly in the jungles
Then came the peace treaty brokered by Thailand in 1989

Now Chin Peng died in Bangkok
The Amno leaders refused to allow his ashes to return home
They said he wasn't a citizen...
They forgot about the peace agreement

Ashes of a dead freedom fighter
In our history he will be written about
In time to show forgiveness
The Amno leaders fail forgetting religious training

One fine day the ashes will return
In a very quiet manner to find his resting place
In the town of his birth in Perak

The police will just scratch their heads
