A Poem for Ko Thet Win Aung

(English version followed by Burmese one)

The White Song of Peace

(By anonymous Student Activist)

Hey, Thet Win Aung!

The white coloured Song of Peace,

Composed out of those scattered pieces

Of your poem recitals, collected

From among the searing scars on your back,

See! We are singing it in chorus now!
