 1. People in prison
for speaking truth to power
people stripped of rights
too brave to yield and cower
people forced to breaking point
to speak on pain of death
Refrain: We honour! Honour! Honour your humanity!
your courage making others whole and free.
Your torturers are thwarted
your torturers subverted!
