The Heavenly Light (A)

Following the blood and tears of February Twenty-Eighth,

The earth’s grievances in we breathe,

The Gods’ light emerges as the Formosa Sun,

Though it can make the demons of imperial colonialism no where to escape but dawn,

Unfortunately,

Devils in powdered masquerade,

To the righteous and honest Formosan do they deceptively persuade.

 

Into the Red Tide and an ocean of blood Taiwan sinks,

The Hell’s Gate finally becomes the modern Three Direct Links.

Direct flight turns into a cruise ship of evil.

 

Among the dizzying darkness and thickening mists, the first gleams of morning light appear.

Holy mountain,

‘Tis our only hope: to build the Holy Mountain.

Newsflash

Tsou Aborigines from Laiji Village (來吉) in Alishan Township (阿里山), Chiayi County, yesterday petitioned the Control Yuan, protesting the county government’s long delay in granting permission for villagers to be resettled on government-owned land after their village was devastated by Typhoon Morakot in 2009.

Although it has been more than two years since Morakot hit the county with torrential rainfall that triggered mudslides in mountainous areas, hundreds of Laiji residents still do not have a place to call home.
