the bamboo river waits

The children feel the pain
They will complain
They should stop to listen
How the people suffer then?

Crying for sympathy
It really doesn’t work
The sins of a father
The children shouldn’t cry

The nation loses her dignity
The nation loses her wealth
The nation loses her credibility
Where were the children then?

They don’t shout out
They keep a low profile
Maybe they should have spoken
Maybe the people will understand

Not now when the fall is hard
The feel of the rich poor
It doesn’t bite with the people
Even one still flies and sips wine!

There will be no public sympathy
The people have seen the way it was
Now they are waiting for the day
The Bamboo River registers his name
