‘A Lonesome Old Man with a very Lonesome Voice’ - U Win Tin (Burmese Journalist and Writer)

(A Burmese Journalist and Writer; U Win Tin (1930-2014)

at his visit.)

 (‘So, I might be a very lonesome voice, not a loud voice, but I must say so all the time.’. - U Win Tin)

A Poem for You - You Are A Lonesome Hero

You did what is right

 Never did what is not right

You have courage to do, to speak, to fight,

   for honesty and right.

Sir, please give me courage

   to face the day of your passing with a song.

I know though your body lies in the grave,

   But your soul goes marching on.
