It’s an explosion of pent up anger

It’s a cry from deep within their souls

It’s having been controlled for years

And now smelling the sweet scent of freedom

It’s wonderful

It’s inspiring

It’s the dawn of a new day

The sun is rising and cannot be stopped

It’s the energy of youth

Their desire for change

Their confidence in what they can do

It’s solidarity

People from all walks of life

Young, old, poor and wealthy

Women, men, artists and athletes

Their march to freedom gathers momentum every day

People around the world send their well wishes

Women cut their hair in the memory of Mahsa

And so many young lives that were sacrificed

It’s a new dawn

A new day

And the future looks bright
