Towards the highest of summits
touching the sun and worlds beyond
above all clouds and empty skies
where the waking heart
finds wider horizons
and the call of a greater song.Of fathoms dark and deeper
a land steeped silent in the mire
from blood red tears
behind the greyest walls
come China's waking heart arise
like a phoenix from the pyre.
