The Splendor of Light

Dark horizon
The world is narrow
Despair is overwhelming
I know

But moving forward in the darkness
Towards the light is beautiful
You know

With the hope of light
Step into the darkness
Do not let these tormenting sorrows break you

For the birds born in gardens
Filled with songs of freedom
Never know the pleasure and joy of liberation

And those raised in golden cages
Do not know the splendor of light
At the end of darkness
