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.

At least 23 people were confirmed dead, 32 injured and 56 confirmed missing in the wake of Typhoon Morakot, the Central Disaster Emergency Operation Center said yesterday.

Hundreds of others were reportedly missing in mountainous areas of southern Taiwan, while the military was trying to rescue those cut off by fallen bridges and raging rivers.

As of last night, the Presidential Office had not declared a state of emergency.
