United Kingdom: Thought-Provoking "Stories in the Pictures" (Photos)
By a European Falun Gong practitioner
(Clearwisdom.net) On the first day of the 59th International Edinburgh
Arts Festival, UK Falun Gong practitioners held an open-air concert called
"Rescue Orphans of Falun Gong Practitioners." A small female choir
sang about "Stories in the Pictures" and had three paintings entitled,
"Homeless," "Why?" and "Come Back Daddy," as the
background to the stories. A narrator explained the stories in the pictures to
the onlookers in detail. Not one of the onlookers lacked a look of sympathy on
their faces. The following is an English translation of the verses to the songs sung by
the choir. Composition and lyrics by UK practitioner Xiong Jun. Homeless This little girl is called Lele, which means "happiness." Lele's
dad was arrested for his belief in Falun Gong a month ago. Today, when Lele
comes home from school, she finds her mother has also been taken away, and her
home has been sealed by the Communist government. So, Lele has been made
homeless. Lele comes home with hasty paces Lifting her head, she sees the front door sealed, Daddy, mummy, where are you? Hence, I am homeless and have nowhere to go, Why? This little boy and his mother have been arrested by Chinese police, simply
because they practice Falun Gong. Badly beaten, the boy holds back his tears and
asks, Why? Why do the policemen beat us? Why, why, Why, why, Come Back Daddy This painting is entitled "Come Back Daddy." The young girl is
called Fadu. Her father was arrested by the Communist government and tortured to
death, only because he practiced Falun Gong. Fadu's mother was so sad her hair
turned white overnight. Since then, Fadu and her mother, who now live in
Australia, have traveled around the world calling on kind-hearted people to help
end the killing and persecution in China. There is a little girl, Suddenly one day, Before long news was heard of his death, Mother and daughter wipe away tears, In China, thousands of people are incarcerated, tortured and murdered only
for practicing Falun Gong and believing in Truthfulness, Compassion and
Tolerance. As a result, countless children have lost their parents, their
families, and can no longer go to school. Such tragedies have been unfolding for
six years, and it's still going on… Kind-hearted people, please extend your helping hand, help us to stop this
persecution and make sure that the tragedy of children losing their parents does
not happen again!
A person so little has heavy worries,
Daddy was abducted last month,
Mother and daughter are now only left with each other's affection.
Then it felt like booming thunder rumbling,
When was mummy arrested?
Now she is gone, the house is empty.
Lele is lonely and sad and sorrowful,
Dad and mum are the best people,
Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance are planted in their hearts.
Wandering through cruel summers and freezing winters,
When will I ever see the fine day come?
When can our family be reunited and embrace the spring breeze again?
Why do they arrest mum and also arrest me,
Interrogated by day, compelled by night,
"Mr." Policeman becomes a monster.
I only regret myself being young,
And watch helplessly as mum suffers.
What's wrong with mum practicing Falun Gong?
One person practices, the whole family is happy,
Everyone gives us the thumbs-up.
Suddenly the sky changes and catastrophe descends,
Full of injustice and wrongs but who can I tell?
Why?
Her name is Fadu.
She travels the world with her mum,
Going thousands of miles,
How blessed she was in the past,
Loved and protected by both mum and dad.
The whole family was delighted to obtain the Fa,
And their happiness was envied by others.
Gusts rushed at one's face,
Daddy was arrested,
And suffered tortures for no reason.
Dad has left the world,
Mum was sorrowful and her hair turned white,
Fadu's tears ran dry.
Continue their steps on their journey,
Calling for people of the world,
To lend a hand and stop the killing.
