Indomitable Will
Born into suffering
Life itself was a struggle
Blessed to find Dafa
Tarry not on the way home
July 19, 2004
The Return
I call out in this bustling world[1]
As the Falun turns in the end times:
You came to earth for the Way
You have longed for this over a millennium of lives
For the sake of the beings in your heavenly Kingdom
Let not the oppressor’s lies confuse
We have been divinely called to spread the truth
And that is the summons of the Creator
Spring of 2009
The Truth Has Long Been Made Clear
Descending from beyond, through clouds and mist
We drifted aimless amidst the mortal realm
Passing ages, reincarnating endlessly
We entered this world to find the Way
But the crowd is so vast, and we sought in vain
While the world grew old and the human mind corrupt
Now divine beings have come to spread Dafa
And the truth has long been made clear
Autumn of 2009
Dispelling Your Confusion
Though we all long for happiness
Adversity more commonly accompanies us
However brave or bold we may be
Or however lowly or capable
Destiny has its own designs for us
Our task is to abide by goodness without complaint
You have forgotten the hope and wish that brought you here
May my song help to set free your heart
May my song help to dispel your confusion
Winter of 2009
Finding the Path to Heaven
It is hard to find the path to Heaven
As emotion’s illusions block our way
It is hard to see the divine
Yet let go of status and wealth,
and you will no longer be blind
Most everyone came from Heaven
Becoming human to await the Creator
And the salvation He brings to all,
heavenly and mortal, in the end
Atheism and evolution are lies
Science has set us on a perilous course
Turn back and rediscover traditional ways
For heavenly beings await you at journey’s end
Winter of 2009
A Return to Glory
They did away with traditions
And branded the well-educated “vile”
Five millennia of civilization
Suddenly denounced as “rotten”
Endless programs of persecution
Tens of millions wrongfully killed
Rivers left dammed and lands stripped
The divine land now covered in wounds
The legacy of Communism
Violence and wicked doctrines
Wanton imprisonment
The Tiananmen Massacre
The murder of Dafa disciples
Warring against the divine
Warring against the earth
Unabashedly evil
Daring even to kill followers of Buddha
With no place to turn now and no tricks left
The Red Scourge is finished
Nowhere can it hide
Awareness spreads far and wide
China’s glory will return
New Year’s Day 2010
The Divine Are Choosing Souls
Let not power and money blind you
Earthly honors are hardly sacred
Power and money can lead to abuse
All is impermanent, like a dream in the end
We ask only that you take a moment to listen
For followers of Dafa are saving lives
In these troubled times, the divine are choosing souls
Only the good board the ferry to Heaven
March 3, 2010
Breaking Out of Confusion
From Heaven we came to this earth
Entering this mortal realm to find Dafa
Enduring through history countless lifetimes
The end of days is here—seek the Creator
All know that His Way now spreads in this world
But truth can be hard to tell from lies
We must learn to see good from evil
Find the truth and break out of confusion
Spring of 2010
Why Saving You Is So Hard
The prophecies of the ages are divine wisdom
All of creation is now in peril
The way out lies in awareness
Don’t dismiss it; try in earnest to understand
Salvation is hard to come by
When the Party’s lies abound
All know the Red Regime is evil
So why support it? Have you no heart?
April 6, 2010
Stirred by Reflection
Lotuses fill the courtyard after a decade of adversity
And a rainbow of colors light the heavens
Divine bodies shine with purity, forged by ordeals
Thoughts so genuine they clear the clouds, leaving azure sky
Disciples of Dafa journey the earth with compassion
Their good will saves lives, purging the evil specter
When right thoughts abide they are divine, even here
The myriad gods await their triumphant return
June 29, 2010
Because We Promised Each Other
Before coming to this earth we promised:
Whoever found the Way would share the news
Yet now you shy away when I tell you of the truth
The lies of the oppressor have misled you
It would seem you know little of Falun Gong
Cultivators of the Way, they travel a divine path
The world now teeters on the brink of disaster
Anyone still filled with poison
will go down with the Red Scourge
We race against the clock to save others
Only when you are saved
will my heart’s yearning be fulfilled
To save others, I brave all violence
Because before coming to earth, we promised each other
August 16, 2010
Bring My Wish
I look to the clouds drifting across the sky
And ask that joy be brought to the one I love
The ages I had waited were not in vain
With Dafa now spreading, the moment of destiny has come
And I no longer search in darkness
I look to the fleeting clouds and ask
That my wish be brought to the one I love
May we together lead lives of spiritual focus
And together grow in our faith
Summer of 2011
Truth Be Told
Though we are not acquainted
And regardless of where you are from
I know most of us came from Heaven
And are here to await the Creator
The way back to Heaven begins with atoning for sins
Yet the devil is roused by the coming of the divine
Heed not the lies of the Red Beast
For it wishes to stop you from making this divine connection
Find Dafa’s followers to understand the truth
This is the chance you have awaited for millions of ages
This is your final hope
Summer of 2011
How Long Is the Journey of Life
Our lives are so busy, but the purpose unclear
The most beautiful sunset lasts not long
Our future is far from certain
Crises seem to lurk on every front
Yet as the lamp burns down, a final flash
Bathes the world in its dying glow
The divine is with us in the hour of peril
Heaven awaits those who see the truth
July 23, 2011
Lost, Even While Dafa Spreads
Though the sun still travels East to West
Larger cosmic workings have gone awry
Divine ones came to earth for Dafa
Intent on returning to Heaven with its path
Do not be blinded by money
For that is worthless in the end
After lifetimes of pain, the hour is finally at hand
Dafa is spreading; why are you still lost?
Autumn of 2011
The Divinely Appointed Path
People of the world
To save you, we brave the Red Beast’s violence
The truth we share offers hope
It can purge you of the poisonous lies
To see the Great Way to Heaven—Dafa
To hear the Creator’s call
For these we came and endured so much
We vowed to save lives whatever the peril
For this is our divinely appointed path
Autumn of 2011
The Song in My Heart
In the depths of my being lies an ancient song
A melody full of yearning
Whenever I am hurt
Whenever I feel lost in life
I sing it in my heart, silently:
If we hold fast to kindness, there is hope
Our homes are in Heaven above
I can never forget this melody
Autumn of 2011
An Impromptu Poem for the Mid-Autumn Festival
The full moon hangs high, having risen unnoticed
Mid-Autumn is being celebrated
at the grand courtyard of Dragon Springs
Though bathed in silver, the eve is still cold
Joy is tinged with sorrow
for the sons and daughters of China
But the moonlit sky will turn clear by and by
The Red Scourge is receding,
its devils scurrying to flee
All of creation is covered
by the great force of Fa-rectification
And no rest will be had until
all of the evil is thoroughly purged
And the Three Realms restored to a wholesome state
After the Fa rectifies the human world,
we shall enjoy another autumn
Mid-Autumn, Eighth Lunar Month, 2011
An Impromptu Poem
What are the heavens?
What is the earth?
Human eyes leave not this plane
What are divinities?
What are spirits?
Many foolishly confuse the two
Humans cannot understand the multitude of space-times
Or that all beings’ bodies interweave
A church here may be a pigpen there
A dining table here may be a toilet there
“Worldliness” here, foolishness there
Some have spiritual potential, while others lack
January 4, 2012
Beings Are From Heaven
Human existence is like a maze, with no direction in sight
Even our beginnings are clouded and mysterious
Over lifetimes, reborn in different skins
Kings, commoners, rich, poor: who decides?
Most all of us came from Heaven above
But to return, we who fell down must first be remade
Over all our lifetimes we awaited the Way
Dafa can forge righteous saints
Early 2012
Divine Beings Watch All That We Do
The great river flows east, never to return
Times pass and things change, never to recur
Divine beings watch all that we do, keeping account
As the persecutors of Dafa make fools of themselves
The Red Regime’s lies deceive the world’s people
Clowning around, trying to turn the world upside down
As the Falun turns again, your heart is what counts
The ill winds of the final days will not last long
Spring of 2012
Honest Words
Growth, stability, decline, and death; such a law still exists
Calamity awaits as the firmament ends
In search of Dafa to save the people of their realms
A myriad divinities descended to this world and suffered
After eons of waiting, don’t miss this chance
The Creator has long since arrived
He spreads the Dafa and saves all lives
While the Red Beast sows confusion with lies
Your conscience will tell you what is true
Man is blind to the gates of Heaven, open after all these ages
We forget who we are amidst the delusion
But Dafa’s truths will make sense of it all
Your family awaits in the heavens above
So quickly board the divine vessel
and transcend this mortal coil
March 15, 2012
The Choice
The Dafa that saves the world was born in the East
But that is not the evil Communist Party’s [domain]
The Creator chose that land
Because incinerating the Party of evil could temper diamond
Dafa disciples suffer like the awakened ones of the past
So do not choose the wrong side
Curry the wicked’s favor and you will fall into their trap
Dafa has spread from China to the West
Learn the truth, for that is your hope for salvation
May 3, 2012
From Where Have We Come?
As geese travel from north to south
How many of us remember our heavenly homes
Why did we become buried in this earthly world
And who steered our course over all the lifetimes
What explains our special feelings toward the divine?
Falun Dafa sheds light on the truth of the matter
Though its followers are persecuted in China
That is because in trying to save you, dust has been stirred
Summer of 2012
I Sing the Truth
Through my song, I share with you the truth
Your life is not meant to be just an offering to the Party
For we all came from Heaven
And life after life, we were not meant to fight
But actually to await the Creator of the universe
Do not believe the Red Beast’s lies
The Red wall is toppled to rescue you
The persecution is a facade
The evil is always trying to challenge the divine
Do not miss the opportunity of the ages
For my song holds the hope you’ve awaited
July 1, 2012
Our True Abodes
The years of our lives pass by in a blur
Yet as time fades, our promises go unfulfilled
Too many are the regrets
Too poignant the feelings
Our human lives are but a short sojourn
We forget our true purpose in coming to earth:
That we were entrusted to save Kingdoms above,
fulfilling their hopes
And that to seek the Creator’s aid
We descended from on high without looking back
But in a world of illusion one becomes lost
Worldly success counts for naught in the end
Obtain the Way to return to Heaven, your true abode
July 8, 2012
Through Song
I travel the world’s stages
Sweat and tears behind the melodies
Applause and cheers resonate together
For I convey the truth through song
The dances meanwhile enkindle hope
The Creator’s voice resounds between heaven and earth
Now is the moment awaited for millions of years
So that you shan’t miss the moment of destiny
I fear no persecution and resist the lies
Traveling the world’s stages
Conveying truth to you through song
Autumn of 2012
Not So Mysterious
The moon has always been there
Ask not of Heaven when drunk
It is hard for people to see heavenly palaces
Now is the end of days
What rides the wind is naught but dust
Only cowards fear the chill of high places
Climb high enough and you can grasp the moon
Chang’E now walks the earth
Gaze at the moon now and again
Attain the Way to return to Heaven
Mid-Autumn 2012
Note: I saw on the Web that the tyrant had quoted a line from Su Shi’s poem, “Water Song,” saying that he too wanted to “ride the wind.” I had a good chuckle and wrote this.
A Lyric Poem for Mid-Autumn
Crisp autumn air and full moon come ‘round again
Countless years have we wandered this world
Preeminent figures have come and gone
Hanging high above, the moon sees all
As danger now befalls us in these latter days
The heroes of yore await consummation
Helping Master save lives, practicing Dafa
Theirs is a divine glory that outshines this moon
As all of creation is remade and
a new heaven and earth begun
A moon made anew, and night will no longer be dark
Mid-Autumn 2012
Gazing Upon the Moon
An autumn breeze accompanies the moon tonight
While Chang’E strums her zither above
Bells clang gently from their wind-swept eaves
Accompanied by the laughter of transcendents below
The sky seems to stretch to infinity
A light illumines a sea of clouds
Sky and earth alit at this midnight hour
Joyful conversations linger on deep into the night
As clouds flit and flicker overhead, under the moon
My thoughts turn to all our incarnations over the years
And how we have wandered this earth so long
All for a chance to board the vessel to salvation
Mid-Autumn 2012
Good Tidings for You
What have we been awaiting in our mortal lives?
And in whose hands is the fate of the world?
Falun Dafa has freed me from a lifetime of confusion
Most people came here from Heaven above
To save their cosmic bodies in the hour of peril
Since the Creator decided to right the Cosmos’s Law
We must be remade by Dafa to return to Heaven above
Winter of 2012
Calling Out to the World’s People
I sing a song, calling out to the people of the world
Before the calamity, the divine was sure to arrive
Dafa disciples spread the truth
That is the divine opening Heaven’s gates
The world appears to flourish, yet chaos abounds
And the Red Beast is spreading lies
Heaven’s gates won’t be open for long
How many will enter, and how many will become dust?
Winter of 2012
Secret of Heaven
No matter your ethnicity
My song will tell you the truth
Do you know from whence you came?
Through countless reincarnations, why this human form?
Most people of the world were kings in the heavens
Who descended from above to save their Kingdom’s lives
The Holy King has come to spread Dafa
Fulfill your vow and let your wisdom shine forth
Winter of 2012
To Save All Lives
Like the scenes of a play our lives are acted out
Worldly things in the end fade away
Across our lifetimes we play different roles
From king to commoner, lost in the act
Our lives once began in the palaces of Heaven
We ventured to this earth for Dafa, the Great Way
Just to learn it entailed waiting for the Creator
But to return to Heaven we must first be spiritually remade
Now the Creator, the King, has come unto this world
He staves off disaster, teaching
divine Law while in human form
Let not worldly concerns now hold you back
Or the regret will be dire, your destiny missed
Winter of 2012
Life’s True Purpose
The universe has lost its purity
In these latter days arose the Red Beast
But the Creator has since come to the world
Good and evil clash in a soul-stirring fight
This is no tall-tale of which I sing
’Tis the truth and must be made known
We face deplorable persecution
Our efforts to save stir up violent response
Lies are spread across the land
The children of the Lord prove their mettle
To save lives in these latter days is divine will
Compassion moves me to not forsake even one
Hurry to find the truth
For that is your life’s purpose!
Winter of 2012
For You I Sing
Dear friend,
It is for you that I sing
I fill this song with sincerity
Shared from the depths of my heart
Dafa disciples are divine messengers
They spread the truth to save the world
Nero was a devil and a tyrant
Today’s Red Beast is no different
We must not forget history’s lessons
Those who scoff now will regret before long
Those who understand are on a divine path
Dear friend,
I am singing this for you
And this is the hope you’ve awaited
January 10, 2013
My Deepest Wish
To save all beings I spread the truth
Don’t let lies lead you to resist the call
I have no intention of changing your faith
I just hope you aren’t fooled by the voice of the persecutors
I am not trying to make you a Dafa follower
Rescuing people is a vow I made to the divine
I am reaching out to you before disaster comes
For you once prayed for salvation,
and deliverance back to Heaven
February 6, 2013
Attachments Block the Way
In search of eternal life, they sought the Way
Traveling to houses of worship, year after year
Studying countless scriptures, learned they’ve become
Prattling into the night over spiritual things
The Creator has now come after all the waiting
But the Red Scourge arose just as He came to save
It falls upon us each to see the truth from lies
For those who pass the test, passage to Heaven awaits
February 6, 2013
Will You Board the Divine Vessel, About to Set Sail?
We came here to await the Way that will save all beings
Yet blinded have we become, over all these lifetimes
The Way, however sought, could little be found
Lengthy chatter over scriptures proved empty
At Day’s End the Creator props up the falling sky
But a Red Scourge attacks as He offers the Way
The test falls to each of us to discern true from false
Will you board the divine vessel, about to set sail?
February 6, 2013
All Return
To save the cosmos and hold back destruction’s tide
The Creator made the earth, to which divine ones came
Most of the world’s people hail from the heavens
And await the Way, to save our heavenly kin
Yet it’s easier to come to earth than go to Heaven
We often fall for the allure of worldly things
Now the Creator has finally come!
And with His teachings has divulged life’s mysteries
Learn the truth and board the vessel home
February 7, 2013
The Compassion of Dafa Disciples
I have explained all to you
Yet you choose to believe the oppressor’s lies
To save lives is the sacred vow I have sworn
For all my toils I have never received a cent
My only wish is to rescue you from danger
For this is the compassion of Dafa disciples
For this is the hope that brought you here
For this is your chance to return to Heaven
For this is the Creator’s summons
Early 2013
How Few Are Aware
The setting sun paints the clouds
Yet sunset ever brings worries
A beautiful, brief flash of glory
But the lingering clouds are somber and dark
The fading light bathes China
How many buildings will survive?
Few can divine humanity’s fate
Only those noblest of souls can tell
Early 2013
Divinely Vivid
Voices seemingly not of this earth
Dance so beautiful it looks divine
So graceful these maidens they float
Across the stage ever lithesome
Bridging worlds human and divine
Shen Yun’s dance spans the three domains
March 25, 2013
Chatting Over Tea
The full moon casts a silvery glow tonight
As we imbibe tea at the temple pagoda
Our talk never strays from matters of Shen Yun
Few know all the difficulties behind its success
June 19, 2013
The Bright Moon
From antiquity to today has the moon shined
Celebrated in verse since time immemorial
All of our reincarnations were but for today
The divine path ends in the truest of gold
June 21, 2013
The Origin of All Wisdom
(in couplet form)
The three words of Zhen, Shan, Ren
are sacred with boundless power divine
At just the sincere thought of, “Falun Dafa is good”
all calamities will change
Summer of 2013
Why Do You Reject?
You once made a covenant with the Creator,
before you came to the earth
Saying you wished to be found when Dafa would spread
Yet now when the truth is shared you reject it
How many the persecutor’s lies have misled
May good people not fall for the propaganda
The path we follow is guided by the divine
To save lives is our sacred pledge
On the eve of disaster we must race against time
To save lives, we will brave the ridicule
To save lives, we will brave the brutality
My heart will not rest until all have found the Way
My heart will not rest until all have been saved
Summer of 2013
The Age-Old Dream
Long have I been driven by an age-old dream
’Twas almost like a fable, yet wondrously divine
We were in Heaven and signed a pledge
To journey below for but one mission
Through lifetimes we’ve gone, pained and confused
And finally the age-old dream is fulfilled
The Creator is here, offering salvation, Dafa, to all
This is why we came, this is what we’ve awaited
I now make good on that ancient pledge
For this is no mere fable, it is happening right now
A dream shared in the hearts of many
Summer of 2013
Life’s True Purpose
So little is constant in life
Our joys are always accompanied by sorrows
And good times often require hard work
When my dreams were dashed, I often wondered
What is the purpose of life?
Dafa has allowed me to understand
Most everyone hails from different heavens above
We came to earth when the universe was imperiled
To await the Creator’s purification
No more am I sorrowful or distraught
I have found the Creator, the King of the Law
And I am following His sacred path home
Summer of 2013
A Song Long Awaited
Through song, I reveal many truths
Life is not a contest for status and wealth
You and I alike came from Heaven above
For lifetimes we have awaited the Creator, the King
The persecution is but a facade
Meant to block you from seeing the truth
Now the Creator spreads Dafa as crisis nears
To save you, I topple the Red Wall of lies
This song holds the hope that you’ve long awaited
Summer of 2013
This Is the Truth
Though we know each other not
Seeing you in danger, I will extend a hand
For most all the world’s people came from Heaven
To await the Way and one day be saved
Returning to Heaven, our bodies remade divine
But such things the Devil can little stand
And so persecution and lies were unleashed
All to prevent you from your sacred destiny
Blocking you from the truth
Making you miss what you’ve awaited for eons
In the truth lies your greatest hope
Summer of 2013
Why Refuse the Call?
Why do you turn away?
We do not seek to change your faith
Much less make you a believer in the divine
Such things are in the hands of fate
We made a sacred pledge to save lives at risk
Our only hope is that you learn the truth
For you had once prayed to God for deliverance to Heaven
But now you refuse the call due to Red lies
Your soul longs for what Dafa disciples share
July 6, 2013
The View of the Mountain
Fog encases the mountain
Clouds cover the sky
The scent of camellia flowers
Mingles with chimney smoke
Drink fills my cup
Clear, cool, and sweet
Finally, some quietude
Yet countless duties loom
August 1, 2013
Choose Your Future
I have shared the truth with you
About the persecution that harms all lives
We strive to save people on the eve of disaster
And honor our immemorial vows to the Creator
We earn no rewards for our labors
But such is the compassion of Dafa’s followers
This is the very reason you incarnated here
This is the eternal hope of your being
Break free from the lies that aim to fool the world
Follow your true thoughts and choose your future
Autumn of 2013
The Creator Summons You
Disaster threatened to erase all hope
But the divine is fulfilling the covenant
Whoever you may be
Wherever you may live
The Creator still calls out to you
While the Red Beast begins to deceive
The reversal of good and evil
makes telling right from wrong hard
Spreading lies, giving bribes
To try and stop you from being saved
Preventing you from hearing the truth
The truths that Dafa disciples tell can free you of your bonds
Autumn of 2013
The Creator Alone Is Humanity’s Hope
I want to fly back to Heaven, but have not wings
I want to leave this world, but know not the Way
I have lived both worldly glory and humiliation
I have tasted both the bitter and sweet of the human realm
When will the Creator come?
Only He is humanity’s hope
Autumn of 2013
Be Not Lost
Thousands of years, reincarnating
Life after life, full of ordeals
Our nature is lost as we seek worldly things
Gone is the purity we once had
Our lives are explained away as chance
But atheism is a lie
And evolution a farce
Humankind is the work of the Creator
And He will bring us home to Heaven
Autumn of 2013
The Truth
Have you yet awakened the memory of long ago?
Can you recall the vow from before coming here?
Through our reincarnations we have been waiting
What we have long hoped for now comes to pass
Hearing the truth can set your buried memory free
And the truth has the power to spare you from destruction
Our humanity has been ravaged in these latter days
Layers of attachments block us from seeing the light
Newfound clarity shall come to us with the truth
And the plight of Dafa disciples will make sense
For with the truth you will find your self again
And the destined will surely feel emotions welling within
Autumn of 2013
The Song You Have Awaited
The song I sing comes from my heart
This melody has long been with me
All that exists was made by the Creator
At the end of time He spreads good news
All of creation has awaited Him
This is life’s purpose, so do not let it pass by
Further awareness will solve the misgivings in your heart
Let not the persecution deceive you
For it is the Red Beast being provoked
as we try to save humanity
Heed not the lies of the persecutor
Do not let bias take root in your heart
This is the song you have awaited over lifetimes
Autumn of 2013
A Song for You
I have a sacred song for you
I once wondered: Who created Heaven, earth, and all things?
Why does life seem such a trying and aimless affair?
Who is it that I am?
Who really am I?
We try so hard, but are left perplexed over lifetimes
Now Dafa has unlocked my wisdom
I now understand life, and fret not over each trifle
The Creator has come
He calls on me to rouse lost lambs before the disaster
This is the song you’ve awaited
A melody from Heaven above
October 2013
Ethereal Beauty
Long, flowing sleeves stream forth
Angelic are these gracious dancers
Spinning maidens, sublime
Flowing in stunning arrangements
The music is from the heavens
Its exquisite notes transcending the clouds
The songs free the mind of its fetters
Each sound beckoning us back to Heaven
Winter of 2013
True Purpose
My friend
The divine is loathe to abandon you
Not on account of your virtues
But out of a compassion for all lives
The truth will explain all to you
Clearing the lies vilifying Falun Dafa
The venom has gone to your heart
Physical harm can be mended
But a poisoned soul shan’t be spared disaster
I only hope you can see right from wrong
I wish to tell you life’s true purpose
Winter of 2013
Vast as the Sea Is My Heart’s Embrace
Vast as the sea is my heart’s embrace
All under Heaven’s blue canopy my stage
Saving lives in Master’s service, my vow
’Tis divine plan that the truth be made known
Each home and village graced with sweet dew
The ages of waiting were not in vain
For the Creator has now come
With all their might, followers of Dafa
rescue lives amidst calamity
The madmen are now on the edge of a fall
Though few know the injustice we have endured
Heroes of the ages arise amidst the Red Tide
For what we walk towards is a future divine
Winter of 2013
Salvation
The universe’s last page has now turned
With the day of salvation upon us,
the divine calls me to awaken you
Though our name has been tarnished
The truth will set everything right
Those lies are poison, lodged in your mind
And unlike flesh wounds, which can be treated
A poisoned soul will be disintegrated with the Red Regime
I ask only that you tell good from evil
The choice is up to you
I just want you to see the truth
For you once implored the divine not to forsake you
January 1, 2014
A Song From the Ancestors
There is a song in my heart
Passed down from my ancestors to me:
At the Red Regime’s end divine beings shall come
And the spiritual followers will suffer for humankind’s sake
The legend now comes true in our day
The melody tells us to answer destiny’s call
This is every life’s final hope
This is the salvation we have all longed for
January 9, 2014
The Divine Promise Has Not Been Broken
The divine once promised
To deliver us to Heaven at the end of days
For countless ages, all lives have awaited this day
Yet now, even when summoned, they still do not see
Dafa has been taught all the while
Its holy believers bear the world’s burdens with their blood
They raise awareness to save others, even while oppressed
The divine promise has not been broken
Yet some people care only about their interests
And do not scrutinize the oppressor’s lies
They dare not believe reality:
the divine promise is being fulfilled
January 15, 2014
Awaken Now
So long ago you came down to the world
For millennia you have reincarnated here
Fighting to get ahead, the true you has faded
Worldly wants overruled your purity
Atheism is a pack of lies
The heresy of evolution has displaced divine word
Yet in times of misfortune,
people still complain that God does not care
Do not use science to drive humanity toward danger
You came to this world for salvation, your destiny
To return to Heaven is the soul’s deepest wish
To return to Heaven is the destiny you’ve long awaited
January 23, 2014
Vast and Mighty Grace
All things were made by the Creator
At the time of Renewal, He shall deliver us to Heaven
The Divine Coming will not be as you expect
Do not let your beliefs block your salvation
Nor let emotion cloud your judgment
All lives are equal, however they may appear
Goodness or wickedness determines salvation
The Creator has descended, born in the East
All beings, human or divine, depend on His grace
All things were made by the Creator
At the time of Renewal, He shall deliver us to Heaven
January 23, 2014
The Creator Is Calling
The Creator is calling
For this, all have come to earth
Yet the Red Beast spreads lies at the same time
Good and evil are left to each to discern
Faced with crisis, finding salvation is hard
For generations of sin stand in the way
The choice is yours alone
For ages, you have awaited this hour
And now the Creator is calling
January 30, 2014
An Impromptu Poem
Maidens grace the stage
Music transcends, divine
Young men noble and strong
Beautiful ladies flourish scarves
Dancing through history with the divine
Heavenly notes resound across time
In a single Shen Yun show
Five thousand years renewed
February 5, 2014
I Am Helping You
Dear friend
I wish not to give up on you
’Twas you who once prayed to the divine for deliverance
There is more to the persecution than it appears
It blocks people from salvation and learning the teachings
Divine forces will clear our name that oppression tarnished
The wounds of the body shall be healed
And the toxic lies will be dissolved
I come to help you see clearly before the hour of peril
Yet whether you are saved is up to you
February 6, 2014
A Legend From My Hometown
There is a legend in my hometown:
When the yellow flowers bloom, the red flowers shall fall
The Creator will come to save, delivering us back to Heaven
While deceit and oppression will invite divine wrath
How many shall survive the disaster is not known
It will be holy followers that save us from this calamity
While a Red Beast oppresses and harms
Using lies to slander honesty, so sinister its heart
Finding the truth will be the key to surviving disaster
The legend is now coming true
Yellow flowers are blooming, while the Red Regime falls
The Creator is delivering people back to Heaven
February 10, 2014
Righteous Thoughts
They surge like thunderbolts to
cosmic heights
Roaring with colossal power, reaching beyond the heavens
They sweep across the cosmos, no crevice left untouched
Eliminating at once all that’s degenerate and deviant
February 13, 2014
As the Red Beast Is Incinerated, Diamond Is Tempered
Ten thousand petitioners went to Zhongnanhai
But the wicked Party’s thug leader wasn’t right in the head
He wagered the Red Regime in a challenge to Cosmic Law
And spread ill winds of treachery across the world
The lowest of scum in all of history, at home and abroad
He digs his own grave with acts of madness
The Red Regime will crumble after the diamond is tempered
And Dafa’s followers, fulfilling vows, shall return to Heaven
February 14, 2014
My Ancestors’ Song
There is a song I know
A legend from my ancestors
The melody is simple and pure
But the message profound
It tells of catastrophe in the Final Days
And of followers of a Great Way
persecuted for saving us
The truth will be buried in lies
Making people confused
and disaster hard to escape
But it will still pay to be good
To survive, one will have to find the truth
This is my ancestral legend
And signs of the catastrophe suggest it is true
For as legend told, all mysteries will be revealed
as followers of Dafa spread the truth
I want to make this legend come true
I want to make this song come true
February 15, 2014
My Dream Fulfilled
I have long had a dream
That one day I would return to Heaven
For that is a soul’s true home
The Creator has now arrived in the world
He brings us to Heaven with His Great Way of Dafa
I do not want to miss this chance
I wish to fulfill my dream
For this is a human being’s only hope
February 15, 2014
I Will Stay With You, Dafa Disciple
I sense your deep affection when by your side
But you always keep your thoughts to yourself
Kindness infuses your determined look
Yet you never ask that I stay with you
You explain that you are saving lives and must not let up
And the last thing you want is to see evil done to me
I know your vow is to make known the truth
And your compassion is suffused with divinity
I will accompany you always and forever
Even if it means wandering in danger
February 16, 2014
A Believer in God Should Abide by His Word
The universe and its divinities were the Creator’s making
Regardless of in whom you place your faith
The god you believe in is but a speck in the vast cosmos
Let not your notions of race blind you
Or the divine shall scorn you, however often you visit church
It matters not the color of one’s skin
All lives began in realms divine
And no matter who you may be
All are awaiting the Creator’s salvation
Even the divinities above long to be chosen by Him
Humanity must now concert its efforts
And resist the forces of Satan—the Red Beast
Till the way to Heaven opens before you
March 30, 2014
A Sacred Song
Life proves confusing at times
Yet whenever I lose my way
A song in my heart softly sounds:
Don’t complain
Stay good and kind
Most people came from Heaven
We’ve become human to await the Creator
In this lies the hope of each and every life
This song awakens me
This song gives me strength
The sacred melody brightens the sky
Spring of 2014
The Beauty of Shen Yun
’Tis like a dream, seeing Heaven while in this world
Beauty abounds as sleeves unfurl,
movements light and extended
Exquisite colors and maidens of yore fill the scene
Their grace and purity make for a sight ethereal
Grand choreography with figures strong and vigorous
Heroes of China past shine through in all their glory
With men so noble, virtuous, and manly
Reviving tradition is no longer but a wish
Spring of 2014
Passing by a City of Casinos
On a long night’s journey, the road drifts out of focus
As my head nods and my eyes struggle to stay open
Suddenly the hilly and barren landscape afar
sparkles with thousands of lights
As if the bright stars from the Milky Way had descended
But the scene proves one of sin and debauchery
The bad and the good in muddied waters
vying over rotten things
Spring of 2014
Helping You to Safety
Men have forgotten what divine prophecy once told
That the Devil would return a thousand years later
The Red Regime is the work of Satan
Though the Cold War has ended,
greater danger is posed by the CCP
The Berlin Wall has fallen, yet the evil Specter lingers
Oh, good people—
You came to this earth with a mission to fulfill
Veer not too far from the ways of tradition
Modern thought leads us toward destruction
Everyone will behold the final events to come
Only followers of Dafa can guide you to safety
July 6, 2014
Dare You Continue the Madness?
You jump up and down in madness[2]
Your lying mouthpieces howl like wolves
People wicked as demons abet waves of madness
Devoid of kindness and without a conscience
But as the autumn wind grows, reds become yellows
Your insolence disappears, replaced by constant panic
Retribution comes soon; there is no escape
Evil deeds receive their due
Dare you continue the madness?
July 15, 2014
Hope
No matter from where you hail
Your true home is still in Heaven
Our appearances may differ, but inside we’re the same
We strayed from our true nature
And thus came to this earth
To be cleansed of sin and return to Heaven
Dafa disciples are spreading the truth
But Heaven’s gates shan’t be open long
What you’ve hoped for is a chance to return
July 19, 2014
Life Is But a Short Sojourn
In life there are often setbacks
And we suffer without hope,
like treading through a desert
Yet whenever I feel lost
My mind has a sudden flash of clarity—
Do not despair
Be strong
Hold on, for the Creator shall remake us all
Do not let worldly things lure you
away from your path back to Heaven
These thoughts give me strength
Life is but a short sojourn,
and we must seize the opportunity
To finally discover and fulfill our true purpose here
August 1, 2014
Divine Ones Are Fulfilling Their Promise
(in couplet form)
Shen Yun blossoms, its fragrance wafting far and wide
Saving lives by making the truth known
August 2, 2014
Life’s Purpose
Through song I hope to rouse your lost memories
The promise you made before coming seems forgot
It was for the lives of your Kingdom above to be saved
It was to come to the world of man to meet the Creator
In chaotic times you fell for the Red Scourge’s lies
And now you reject the truth Dafa’s followers share
Compassion compels me to still not forsake you
I call out to you again as I strive to save all lives
So fulfill your promise, for that is life’s purpose
August 7, 2014
What the Dafa Practitioners Say Is True
Happy are people over status and wealth
Succumbing to emotional highs and lows
People meet and part, and only some dreams come true
Status and wealth are no more real than a play
And the flower of youth fades before long
Many feel pained when thinking back on life
So what then is the meaning of it all?
What the Dafa practitioners say is true
I just hope I haven’t missed my chance
August 10, 2014
My Wish
A breeze brushes my cheek this eve
Bringing cool respite from the summer heat
Old memories lead me into a reverie
Turbulent were the times I grew up in
Lies driving the nation to madness
But my faith survived, the stronger for it
Elated am I to learn Dafa in this life
And in order to share my joy with others
I leave my hometown, dodging persecution
All that I do is meant to raise awareness
Helping others see the purpose of life
And find hope in the darkest hour
August 12, 2014
Reincarnation
Perhaps we have all had past lives
Then who have we been each time?
From where do we really hail?
When may we return there?
For what have we reincarnated?
What turns the Sun, Moon, and Milky Way?
All of creation is His masterpiece, say Dafa followers
These answers have left me stunned
To return to Heaven, we must be saved by Him
August 15, 2014
What We Came Here For
Why must life be so tiring?
For whom are we really here?
Our enmity and affection are but fleeting clouds
One day we shall realize how sad it was
to lead these lives in a scripted play
Status and wealth cannot be taken with us
And for all our efforts, we come out losing in the end
People came to this world to await the Way
The good will return to their heavenly homes
Countless lifetimes we have reincarnated
This is the moment we came here for!
August 16, 2014
The Creator Has Come
The Creator has come
After all the earth’s waiting
All that exists owes to Him
The Creator has come
For Heaven and earth were crumbling
And the end of the cosmic cycle—
destruction—coming too soon
The Creator has come
He imparts Dafa to save lives
and drive away clouds of darkness
Only when every part of the cosmos works properly,
shall all worlds last eternally
August 17, 2014
History’s Lessons
History’s lessons are so often forgot
Such as how the Buddha once taught
And the Brahmans rejected him for not being one of them
Or how Jesus, also seen as threatening by other religions
Was crucified and finally even pierced with a spear
A new universe begins as Dafa is taught
Yet some rogue religious figures,
to protect their faiths’ interests,
End up on the side of atheism and the Red Beast
People like to draw the wrong lessons from history,
taking those to heart
While the good lessons that could be learned
are dismissed as mere stories
Yet history offers insights of utmost value
At humanity’s end Dafa is lifting the veil
Don’t repeat past mistakes,
blinded by the Party’s propaganda
August 19, 2014
There Is Still Hope
Why is it that I tell you these truths?
Because disaster now rains down on the world’s people
Heed not the Red Beast, lest you follow it to the grave
For persecuting the world’s saviors is a sin immeasurable
If those being persecuted are actually divine, what then?
The real victims are those who believe in the lies
Dafa disciples may suffer, but are en route to divinity
Hope can be found only through knowing the truth
August 20, 2014
Asking the Skies
Rivers flow into the sea
Clouds drift on the horizon
Thousands of lifetimes reborn
Wondering always our origin
With all my heart I sing out
Voicing my song to Heaven
Where is humanity headed?
When will the divine come?
September 3, 2014
Share in the Journey
My dear friend
Waste not your days
Please come and share in the journey
I have found a lifetime treasure in Dafa
Most people here now hail from Heaven
And await the Creator’s remaking
Spiritual practice will bring our hearts together
Let us spur each other to diligence
As we embark on the journey Home, guided by the divine
September 4, 2014
Roaming as the Clouds
I travel all about, the wind as my companion
’Tis too dangerous to return home as the ordeal lingers on
I go to and fro without a care, the Way as my guide
Having no desire for status or money, my heart is at peace
Studying at night by only moon’s light
Sky as blanket, earth as bed, a room full of stars
Roaming this world to raise awareness
In this life I help Master to restore the Way
September 14, 2014
A Dafa Disciple’s Heart
Your eyes brim with affection
And I return a smile, raising awareness without slowing
Your words full of warmth
I always feign not understanding
Dafa disciples roam amidst persecution
So how could I cause yet more pain, unease, and suffering?
All I can do is bury my feelings deep in my heart
And fulfill my divine vows—saving as I walk this earth
September 23, 2014
For You I Sing
I sing for you with all my heart
To alert you to the danger at hand
I wish to trigger that long-lost memory
For therein lies your eternal hope
The Creator made Heaven, earth, and all divinities
And in turn had the gods create the people of this earth
It is the fallen ones who become human
They must atone for their sins to return to Heaven
These words I sing are true
At the hour of peril, the Creator has opened Heaven’s gates
October 15, 2014
Break Free of the Evil Party’s Indoctrination
It seems that life is full of surprising turns
But all has long been in fate’s hidden hand
You are lost, having forgotten the reason you came here
Desire for status, wealth, and affection cause you to stumble
The Red Beast uses lies to lead you astray, towards evil
Discard the evil Party’s doctrines and ideas
For taking up the Way and returning
to Heaven
is your true purpose
November 10, 2014
Prodding
Through song I call out to you
A saving grace woven through the melody
How many days have we each left?
The truth shall give you a new clarity
The divine shan’t spare a corrupt world
As fate would have it, the good
shall be spared and the wicked destroyed
May you soon realize: Divine salvation has come!
November 12, 2014
The Way Restores the Cosmos
(in couplet form)
All of creation was made
by the Lord Buddha’s single thought
When the Way restores the cosmos
Heaven and earth shall be reborn

All Is Remade by His Abundant Grace
(in couplet form)
Dafa is making anew
Heaven, earth, and all of creation
The Lord is in charge of
all life in the universe

Divine Ones Walk the Earth
(in couplet form)
Like rays of morning light,
they drive away dark clouds
Broad-minded and with right thoughts,
dangers are easily averted

Mission
I dreamt that I went back to Heaven
So beautiful that holy place, I won’t soon forget
I realized that atheism is profoundly wrong
And the heavenly beings of legend really do reside above
I did not want to return to this earthly body
Yet the heavenly beings made known
that the wonder would not last
The Dafa that saves now graces the world
And there is hope only for those who find it
Each of us represents a heavenly Kingdom,
and came to this earth for its sake
There above, all lives look to us, their sovereigns, for hope
I now know what my mission is
And will no longer go through life so lost
November 14, 2014
To Help You Gain Clarity
Dafa’s followers have shared with you the truth
The ones poisoned by the persecution
are actually the public, including you
Those who buy into the lies shall
perish together with the Red Beast
The compassion to spread the truth
and save lives comes from the depths of my heart
I give of my time freely, often getting up early in the cold
So busy I miss meals; I do not rest, despite the heat
To save lives, we willingly
brave the terror and the pressure
For I once pledged to the divine to
rouse you in the hour of peril
You came to this world from Heaven to learn Dafa
For doing so would spare your Kingdom’s lives calamity
And this is what brought you to this earth to become human
So resist the Red Beast’s attempts to
brainwash you with Party doctrine
Your Kingdom’s lives pin their hopes on you
December 2, 2014
In But a Moment’s Time
The wind whistles
The clouds drift
The Red tide’s waves of evil refuse to cease
But calamities fall away,
as the ferry of Mercy and Salvation sails with its might
Traveling far against the wind
When we set sail, blood-red flowers spattered the land
Yet as we return,
beautiful yellow blossoms blanket the earth
December 3, 2014
Observing the Mundane World in Meditation
Dark clouds float overheard, spanning the vast sky
A mountain breeze flows across the resplendent lake
I sit meditating in the mountain pavilion,
my body and spirit still and serene
I gaze quietly at the mundane world
and see disaster approach
Good and evil are being sifted out as the Red Scourge falls
Quickly seek the Way and your life may be saved
Though beyond the mundane world, I worry for it so
As the souls now on this earth are actually divine
December 4, 2014
Your People Await You
The truth about the persecution has been revealed to you
The oppression’s true harm is done to you
Those who believe the Red Beast’s lies will perish with it
I call out to awaken you, spurred by a divine pledge
You came to this world to learn the Great Way, Dafa
So that your Kingdom’s lives may be spared from disaster
For this you became mortal and entered this world
Refuse the Red Beast’s lies and spare yourself harm
Learn the truth, for your people await you
December 11, 2014
The Way Back to Heaven
Friend, why are you so caught up in life?
Humankind is on a perilous course
Atheism has destroyed the way Home
The doctrine of evolution poisons and deceives
Science is a gamble that will cost all of mankind
And the Red Beast fills people with malice
Yet the Dafa disciples are disclosing the truth
That is because you once asked the divine
To show you, before the end, the way back to Heaven
January 2, 2015
Awaken, Oh Chinese!
For six-and-a-half decades China hasn’t been the same
Despite all the grandiose lies about how great things are
White clouds once floated in its blue sky
Yet these scenes have long since passed
Verdant country fields and hills, and sparkling streams
Now only exist in the memories of our elders
But then came the gang of hoodlums bringing Red Ruin
The very best of the Chinese populace was killed
Precious cultural remains, millennia old, turned to ashes
History, humanity, and tradition were undone
The five-millennia-old civilization has declined ever since
Awaken, oh people of China!
Put an end to the Party of evil, the Red specter
And return China to its ancient, divine glory
January 2015
Transported by Shen Yun to the Han Imperial Court
Flowing robes and sleeves give the dance a lofty feel
As in the dynasties of the Tang, Song, and Ming
strength and manly virtues radiate from the stage
The songs convey the grandeur of Han Dynasty China
Leaps, aerials, and spins done with nimble technique
Long, silken ribbons flow from the angelic ladies
Who seem as if descended from Heaven to the palace
The beauty, purity, and virtue prove entrancing
Every footstep taken is soft, graceful, and lithe
Shen Yun transports me back to the Han imperial court
Written for the ’07 dance company
A Glimpse of Heaven Through Shen Yun
Splendid costumes and scenery enfold the angelic ladies
Dainty and elegant, they dance lightly on their feet
Heroes with astounding skills showcase past and present
Ethereal music and sacred songs soar to heavenly heights
Magnificent palaces emerge from the roseate clouds
Fluttering are the colorful skirts of consummate beauties
Radiant are the men in Han regalia, with a noble and lofty air
Shen Yun offers a glimpse of Heaven here in this world
Written for the ’08 dance company
Shen Yun’s Classical Style
Heavenly notes and beautiful figures, skirts all aflutter
Young men in Chinese garb, overflowing with nobility
The Zhou, Han, Tang, and Ming live again through dance
Time itself has turned back; enjoy it to the fullest
Innocent young girls form a beautiful bouquet
Heroes take flight, righteousness soars
China’s classical style stuns the globe
Traditions return amidst a bloom of flowers
Shen Yun’s stage showcases the classical style
Written for the ’09 dance company
Shen Yun Opens the Way to Tradition
A blue sky full of white clouds frames beautiful ladies
Young willows with heavenly grace,
unsullied by the mundane
Their charm and elegance comes to them naturally
Bright, dew-covered lotuses, pure and fragrant
Timeless spirits, impressive in their bearing
Soaring warriors, ministers of the imperial court
China’s history is filled with heroes of yore
Flipping, twisting, leaping, spinning, semi-divine
Shen Yun opens the way to tradition
Written for the ’13 dance company
Sincerity
The friendship I share with you
Is so sincere and true
As I endure ordeals, a follower of Dafa
It has brought warmth and chased away
the coldness in my heart
And as I face my own trials
Your friendship strengthens me
I want to share the truth with you:
My mission is sacred like no other
Your sincerity inspires me to save more lives
February 2015
To Renew the Country
On the other side of the ocean
Lies my long-parted homeland
The five millennia of culture there,
divinely given, had a glory unmatched
Its landscape was once charming,
its people beautiful, its flowers fragrant
Dafa was spreading, bringing the Buddha’s light
But the Red Beast sought to stop it,
with an overwhelming force
The mountains are no longer verdant
The waters no longer flow
The sky has lost its azure hue
The rice has lost its aroma
Dafa’s disciples endure much to save lives
Spreading truth, they stem the Red tide
Tradition must be restored
for the country to thrive again
February 22, 2015
A Choice Once More
Why do I want to share the truth with you?
Because the lies have harmed so many
Why has the Red Beast thrown China’s might
into suppressing Falun Gong?
Because it knows that in this end time, Dafa can save you,
and so it tries to confuse
It has misled you, like so many others, with its lies
But the divine has set terms for salvation in the Final Days:
Those who stand by, silent during the persecution,
will not be saved
The accomplices and lie mongers are being purged
Yet the divine is by nature merciful
And the Creator is once again giving people a choice
So that everyone may be saved,
I brave persecution to call out to your soul
March 1, 2015
Leading You Back to Heaven
I sing of the truth you have long awaited
Humanity is in danger, for morals have changed
Atheism is a monstrous lie spread by Satan
Evolutionary theory is nonsense and groundless
Science steers man on a perilous course
The universe is the Creator’s masterpiece
Humans were made by divinities at His command
We have waited for Him to take us back to Heaven
Be not deceived by the Red Beast
It persecutes so that man shall destroy his future
The followers of Dafa are divine messengers
Leading us onto the divinely shown way
March 6, 2015
The Light of Dawn
All things greet the morning sun
And the darkness and malevolence prove feeble
Fifteen years of turmoil now
The land is desolate and bleak
Minds divorced from the past
Even man’s food is toxic
Punishment is coming for the villains
We shall see who laughs last
March 17, 2015
Song of China
Five thousand years of civilization
A brilliant culture divinely bestowed
We are children of God
Industrious, brave, cultured, and kind
Its rich and deep history the nation’s glory
The heroes of yore shining still with brilliance
Blessed with a gorgeous landscape, a gift from the divine
This is where the Creator arrived
Who now strives to save all lives and
restore true ways—an outpouring of grace
China’s civilization will carry on, forever
March 17, 2015
When Shall You Awaken?
The cold winds have yet to pass
The rains drizzle down
The time of persecution, lives must quickly be saved
Harm done to the physical body
Can be healed
But those poisoned by lies are hard to save
The disaster ahead shall be merciless
Yet the plague will have its targets
Perish not with the Red Beast
Quickly seek the truth
Those who tell good from evil are truly wise
Witness the compassion of Dafa’s disciples
Suffering as they do to rescue you
Braving a myriad hardships
Standing fast amidst great ordeals
Seeking no reward
Spiritual practitioners are they
Their wish fulfilled, they shall return home, perfected
March 18, 2015
The Dance of Shen Yun
So graceful are the heavenly ladies
brandishing their flowing sleeves
Moving with such a soft bearing
their sleeves magically flutter
Divine dancing, sacred songs, the beauty of a painting
A myriad rays of light
clear away all darkness
Spring of 2015
Returning to the True Ways
Amidst emerald hills and waters
lie ancient-styled structures
Heavenly maidens alight
and dance with their gentle grace
With elegant and classical bearing,
tradition they bring to life
Returning to the true ways
the future is bright
March 25, 2015
The Chance at Salvation Is Now
I gaze up at the boundless sky, the universe vast
Countless stars, grains of the Ganges
The eyes of the flesh cannot see
all the divine ones in their celestial halls
Atheism is pure deception
The theory of evolution disgraces humankind
The blind pursuit of science comes at too great a cost—
extraterrestrial forces gaining dominion over man
We came to earth as a short sojourn from Heaven
At end of days, as the universe was to disintegrate, dissolve
The Creator is making everything anew
Heaven’s myriad kings and lords have descended here,
to become human and await His salvation
But the Red Beast madly oppresses while hiding the truth
Don’t succumb to the lies and threats, becoming lost
You are on the earth for this brief chance at salvation
March 30, 2015
You Be the Judge
The higher laws are clear:
Good and evil are repaid in kind
Divine ones fill the skies
watching what we do
Monstrous is the sin
of persecuting Dafa disciples
Will the payback be meted out?
You be the judge
April 3, 2015
What’s To Be Done?
The heavens have lost the Way, crumbling
The earth has lost its virtue and disasters abound
People’s hearts have sunk into bottomless depravity
So when the great calamity comes, who will watch over you?
April 22, 2015
By Understanding the Truth, You Are Saved
When divine ones lose the Way, the heavens crumble
When mankind loses its virtue, disaster begins
The Creator has now come to this world
He makes the Universe anew and imparts the Way
Most lives are divine, though they have forgotten:
They came to the earth to be saved and remade
Truth has the power to purify the soul
With the mind put right, you are saved
April 23, 2015
We Depict the Truth
We sail far and wide to save all lives
Over plains, mountains, and seas we fly
We pass along the Creator’s call
And show the glories of divine culture
On stage, we reveal the truth
Many were lost, but now can see
It is our mission to awaken people
Followers of Dafa offer deliverance back to Heaven
April 28, 2015
Performing Arts Divine
Angelic beauties alight from a heavenly height
Gracefully they turn and spin here in this world
With beautiful bearing, elegantly they dance
Like pure lotus flowers, shimmering with fresh dew
Beautiful figures with lovely faces, treading on clouds
Soft music plays, flowers soar, and long sleeves flutter
Emerald-dipped fairies bring a fragrant aroma
With beauty equal to jade, they dance with ease
May 19, 2015
To Inspire Hope Through Song
Upon the stages of the world I stand
Singing to inspire hope
The divine calls to us through the melody
The verses I sing relay the truth
I brave oppression to save you from peril
Most people came from Heaven above
And became human to save their Kingdoms above
For the cosmos would crumble in the end
They came to the world to seek the Way
And be cleansed of their sins
To forge divine bodies anew
And return to Heaven, perfected
May 29, 2015
Beneath the Meditation Pavilion
A light breeze brushes past me on the meditation bench
The chirping of birds drifts out from beneath the trees
The natural scenery is beautiful and charming as before
How many summers have I witnessed from this mountain pavilion?
June 13, 2015
Believe if You Wish
I gaze at the starry sky and search for my Home
Most people on earth were once sovereigns above
They came to await the Way and save their
heavenly Kingdoms’ lives in the Final Days
Yet over the ages this aspiration has been forgotten
Now people are being led into the abyss
Atheism is destroying our divine nature
Evolution, in its wickedness, decries man as beast, as ape
Modern science brings humanity to the brink of disaster
Mankind now marches toward the final peril
Yet compassion is the divine’s way
The redeeming Dafa now spreads to the destined
To find it is each person’s hope
Finding Dafa, you may return to your heavenly home
June 13, 2015
Retribution
A mind full of anxiety
Knowing it shan’t be long
Nervous each and every day
At the police car’s siren song
When persecution ends, all must be paid
All the evil means have been noted down
And the demons will get a taste of it all,
with gut-wrenching pain
The rotten despot shall no longer clown
A petty thug with inferior ideas
A treacherous weasel full of schemes
The end nears and he shan’t get away
Human retribution won’t suffice, it seems
Hung up by divine hook over the Square
Hell’s ghouls will surely have their share
June 15, 2015
Toward the Divinely Shown Shore
When we go astray in life
We are like vessels lost at sea
Smooth waters allow us to stretch our sails
But rough waves are more standard fare
Without direction
And with no harbor in sight
Our age-old vows can guide us, if only we recall them
Vast changes now sweep across the universe
Most all people hail from Heaven
We came here to await Dafa, fulfilling our destiny
Atoning for our karma
And remolding a divine body
Only then can each of our Heavenly kingdoms
be saved from disaster
So set sail
And find your destiny
For the divine has shown the way to shore

Tian Guo Marching Band
Sacred drums and horns show Heaven’s might
Eliminating evil and calling beings to return Home
Saving people from doom, shaking Heaven and earth
The Way rights the cosmos, shining and bright

Few Realize
No matter how good this world gets,
it is no match for Heaven
Our loves and friendships can’t last forever
Our triumphs don’t follow us to the afterlife
We seek fame and fortune, but what of it in the end?
People came from the heavens to find the Way
Atone for your karma, forging a body divine
And your Kingdom above will welcome a Lord renewed

We Dance With the Divine, Building a Bridge to Heaven
Traveling the world to perform, thousands of miles
We cross cities, sail seas, and traverse high peaks
To raise awareness and save lives
We dance with the divine, building a bridge to Heaven
In the final days, the Creator will arrive
Myriad divine ones have come to the earth to seek Him
He remakes the universe and shares the Great Way
Those who embrace it are renewed,
and sentient beings delight
You once prayed for salvation to Heaven
Through these songs I wish to make you aware
We travel the world to reach out to you

For Whom the Moon Grows Full
High hangs Mid-Autumn moon, ever since ancient times
Yet that day the full moon cast a chill over me
For who could moon-gaze as Dafa disciples suffer?
Each year, on the fifteenth, the moon has idly hung
Today again is Mid-Autumn, the shameful acts are ending
The Party of evil has reached its autumn;
now who is troubled?
Though I wish to view the moon, it’s hard to lift my eyes
When the Red tide ends, the moon will be yet fuller
Mid-Autumn 2015
The Moon Shines for Man
The moon lit up the long night for thousands of years
Forbidding darkness from taking hold of man
Spring goes, autumn comes, many things change
But the moon stays the same, radiating thousands of rays
Seas become fields and fields turn back into seas
But throughout the ages, the right Way has never deviated
For what have we reincarnated time and again?
The bright moon says nothing, and so we ask Heaven
At the end of days we learn that it was
divine deliverance we had awaited
And that the way to Heaven lies in choosing good over evil
Mid-Autumn 2015
Mid-Autumn Festivities
Dancing lightly, fairies walk the realm of man
Moving vigorously, warriors display their heroism
Dancing together on this Mid-Autumn,
performing works of their own creation
Amidst song and laughter, the Red tide ebbs ever shallower
The divine culture bides, awaiting its rebirth
The stars of today will shine even brighter tomorrow
