“Take My Soul onto the Fire”

Jannet Jin

Art of Creative Unity Award 2021 | First Prize (21 and under)

Take my soul onto the fire

For the world of winds

For the land of free

When asked of faith

Answer with faith

When asked of gender

Answer with confidence

Whisper to the rhythms of flame

To the place

Where we are all brothers

hand in hand

United in a big heart

Dive down to the heartbeat of the ground

None shall be afraid for there is light

None shall avoid for there is hope

Take my soul onto the fire

Stroll along the lullabies of moonlight

Rise upon the ashes

Dive deeply into the heart

Open up your eyes

Be among the free

Be among the mighty

Take my soul onto the fire

For there is light

For there is hope
