Lim Kit Siang

Bersih 3, Penang

by Allan CF Goh

The morning breaks with heavy rain,
Washing out the dark clouds of dawn.
A fresh, shining morn emerges,
Radiant with strong, bright sunshine.
This reflects the hope we carry,
For a clean and fair election.
Let the sun brighten the day,
Let it bring light to the darkness
Of the Election Commission,
So that real justice and fairness
Will be reflected in the votes,
To truly express our free will.
This is no less the people’s right,
For Nation and democracy!
Let the people select the best
To serve an honest government.
Banish all the rabble-rousers,
And the corrupted officials.
Let us stand up and be counted,
In support of the Bersih 3.
