The Strongest Shadow
The great hails
From the dust of time
From his ground, we mine
Our precious dime.

Single in virtue
Erect His Statue
A glorious son from the soil
Who's name holds no toil

The brave Confronter
Our soul Comforter
A cold heat
Our heart beat.

The merger of tribe
Words cannot describe
How much we miss your excellence
Lost you, now we see through a clear lens.
How important?
At what cost?
For such a lost!
