China Verse:
In Xinjiang's shadows, where stories unfold, Forced labor tales, a silent woe.
Cultural bonds shattered, freedoms in chains, A narrative etched in silent pains.
Russia Verse:
Chechnya's struggle, a silenced plight, Navalny's voice, seeking the light.
Political winds, freedoms constrained, In the face of dissent, truth's refrain.
USA Verse:
Indigenous sorrow, a legacy untold, Traces of slavery, histories unfold.
Vietnam's scars, a war's haunting night, Guantánamo's secrets, hidden from sight.
Japan Verse:
Nanjing's silence, Unit 731's dread, Occupied nations, tears left unsaid.
Cruelty echoes through wartime's despair, Unit 731's legacy, heavy to bear.
Germany Verse:
Holocaust's darkness, a world's heavy heart, Euthanasia's whispers, tearing apart.
Invasion's cruelty, occupation's blight, War crimes haunting history's night.
Outro:
In the dance of nations, a mosaic so vast, Histories entwined, shadows cast.
United in shared lessons to glean, In the dance of time, death redeems.
