Our Dreams

We are all enlightened people. We will weave dreams together, spread light all around, we will forget our differences and build a dream home of hope. We will spread love all over the world.

We will not lose, we will move forward by throwing away hundreds of obstacles and human barriers, nothing can stop us.

Let's all join hands together, hundreds of hardships, hunger or deprivation will not be able to break us. Our strength is our faith, our inspiration is our simplicity. For hundreds of years, storms, tidal waves, cyclones, or the cries of hundreds of thousands of people who starve regularly, we have conquered everything with a smile, we are a fearless hardworking nation, giving up is not in our blood.

The open sky, green fields, the sound of the shepherd's soul-stirring flute sound, the smile of a mother sitting without food, the sound of a group of naked children jumping into the river, the joy of returning home after a father's long day hard work.

We will live, spreading endless smiles, holding a handful of the late afternoon sun with the red light in our hands, saying, "We are enlightened people."
