FREE TIBET
AUM
How long must we wait,
At the beginning's gate ?
It's not too late,
How long must we wait ?
How long must we wait before this retribution ?
How long must we wait before this holy retribution ?
FREE TIBET ! FREE TIBET !
FREE TIBET ! FREE TIBET !
Soldiers walking through the monasteries
Burning all those priviledged pages,
Soldiers tromping through the monasteries
Murdering the ancient sages of Love.
Where did they go? Where? Bardo Thotrol.
May the light of Wisdom shine through
What those barbarians did to you,
Forgiveness, compassion what will they do
When ignorance points guns and blades towards you ?
FREE TIBET ! FREE TIBET !
FREE TIBET ! FREE TIBET !

Recordings of Tibetans in exile, Ladakh, Nepal, were blended in at certain sections.
Instruments used were my 12-string guitar in sitar-like fashion (11-strings only with
the small doubled E on the fat low string removed as an 11-string), tenor recorder and
small Tibetan prayer drum.
This song is for the Tibetan people and their spokesperson;
His Holiness the XIV Dalai Lama of the Tibetan Government in exile in their noble
struggle for cultural and civil rights under the seemingly oppressive domination and
control imposed upon them by the Chinese Communist Party in the now so-called
'autonomous region' that was once the former unique country and culture of Tibet.
