For Nelson Mandela ,who is the former president of South Africa. 《To Meet The Prime Time》/《Glorious Days》 Can we forget about the races? Hope on this land Equality is for everyone The pretty color shows its own beauty Cause it does not Separate each of them You’ve lost what you owned in those years But there are still hopes in your weary eyes Now we’ve only got the empty lives To see the glorious days Holding freedom in stormy seas Suffering the painful time life brings Will surely make a change Who can just make it right? The bell rings for the call of home In the life of his It seems to be meaningless The thing dark skin has given to him is fighting for black race all his life You’ve lost what you owned in those years But there are still hopes in your weary eyes Now we’ve only got the empty lives To see the glorious days Holding freedom in stormy seas Suffering the painful time life brings Will surely make a change Who can just make it right?
