' Heroes of Tiananmen '

Heroes, you who had given your lives

for China you believed in, your China

one of justice, dignity, free of misrule

in the embrace of the Heavenly sky

Heroes, you the students who believed

China can be free, democratic

as elsewhere in the Free World

in the embrace of worldwide liberty

Heroes, you on the Tiananmen Square

crashed down brutally on the 4th of June

with assault rifles and tanks, lots of blood

and against all human values dear to humankind

Heroes, unforgettable, forever to last

together with your Goddess of Freedom

which lasted only a few days before being demolished

Goddess of Freedom, the sister of the Statue of Liberty !!

Heroes, you who fought for a new China

despite of some people saying disturbingly

China can never be democratic, no chance

On the contrary, democracy is for all !!

Heroes, you the scintillating Soul of China

who believed firmly and determinedly

no nation can be denied liberty, freedoms and dignity

Your soul, Soul of China is on the march !!

Heroes, you the students of Tiananmen revolution

the one of 1989 which moved hearts

of the entire nation, eternal hearts of love

Yes, freedom, love and brotherhood shall win one day !

Heroes, you were brutally crashed down

on one early morning, at a peaceful dawn

with your blood and lives taken away

You're the monument of free China to come !!

Heroes, they used tanks and army against you

while you wanted just freedom innocently

and dignity for every single individual

Your cause is not dead, your cause is alive, more than ever !!

Heroes, your '89 Heavenly Democracy Movement

is written down in history of China

Kept in the soul of the nation forever, the Soul of China

written down in China's chapters as finest ever

Heroes, you shall be the winner in the end

and the Goddess of Freedom shall return

to her rightful place on the Tiananmen Square

both, under the bright Sun and the shimmering stars

Heroes, know it the entire Free World tributes you

You're part of the great family of nations

who chose for freedoms, liberty and dignity

You're written down in the annals of the world !!
