The Night Before Bastille Day

— — to the imprisoned hearts longing for freedom

May the Caged Souls Set FREE.

The fireworks start blowing

In the rosy sky.

With People on the ceiling

Chanting the Islamic songs.

The whole world is in celebration.

While I have nothing to celebrate,

Only a lot to mourn.

The 2nd anniversary of an empty chair,

Makes me remember him.

The Empty Chair for Liu Xiaobo.

The names he wrote on the blackboard,

Come to my mind times after times.

He spoiled his life

With endless alcohol.

His lessons are always filled

With inspirations and wisdoms.

The seeds of freedom

sowed by the drunk man,

Sprout out painfully

In the disappointing life,

In the deceived cage,

With scoldings and punishments.

The first miracle of God,

if counting,

Is the light inside his words.

The lampe given unheralded,

shows me the way all along.

On this night I need his voice

So, so badly.

No, no, shall not break

his dream in the wine.

May you safe and sound,

drink well and dream well,

whatever storm might come.

May the storm coming

big enough to bring

piece of hope

for freedom,

reviving the imprisoned souls.

Rivers never stop.

Judges finally come.

With His kingdom for those

Keeping their hearts.

In Jesus’s name, I Pray.

The Bastille in that land

Breaks,

The souls in caged

Set free.

Amen.

Mount.
