Come and go stealthily said the child,  
For the mind was full of endless possibilities and joy, 
Openly excited, containing such dreams and aspirations. 
Hurry and quickly go said the id, 
CSVN cannot bear such harsh realities. 
 
Back to reality 
I do lament in such despair 
 
The Party will complain, cheat and lies,  
Yet praise itself for much deeds undone ... 
Party members will bewail such misdeeds  
But yet shut their minds and readily approve, 
And all throughout a fleeting thought, 
I will lament and wait to be free again 
 	 
I think I could turn and live with the animals,  
So compliant and self-contain’d are they, 
I stand and gazed at them long and short. 
They sweat and whine in torrid conditions 
And yet shut their minds and readily approve 
 
Though trodden down and properly trained,  
But yet within me, along 
With the garbage, lies, faces ... 
Faces and voices of long hidden past, 
So many dreams and lives woven into mine, 
Such sheer improbable magnitude of memories come into lite 
So much already forbidden, lost and pruned away 
 
Hold fast to dreams 
For if dreams die ... 
Back to reality, I'm violently made aware 
I do lament in such despair, 
CSVN utopian society is what it is 
Beyond compare

All thanks to Uncle Hoe 
The lost of national heritage and identity is now complete 
To lose the mind and the soul ...
