Your voice lives on

Teacher!

You taught us
Alphabets
To Economics
And class struggles

You taught us
To raise doubts
To learn
To question

But when you raised questions
And participated in protests
Faced illegal detention
And prolonged incarceration

Through the iron bars of prison
We hear your persistent slogan
‘Long live revolution!
Long live revolution!’

Days months have passed
Your message never faded
From our innermost brain
Your voice lives on!
