The Ground You Shook, The Path You Took.
To all the Vietnamese dissidents back home
We haven’t met you, but you’re all beautiful to us
Wise as the tigers of old and brave as the heroes of yore
We heard your voice
We saw your choice
They were made for us
You left your words for us to follow you like a map
Within the dark land you gave us a lamp
We heard your voice
We saw your choice
We now walk the ground you shook
The path you took
And follow the words in your book
Until the commies are down
And the Chinks are driven out
Wissai September 2009
