They tried and tried 

To dim that light

The light that stood for freedom

The light that stood for equality

The light that stood for you

The light that stood for me 

They tried and tried 

To switch off that light 

But it fought and fought 

He fought and fought 

The intergrity 

The honesty 

That he had 

The belief 

The purity 

That he cariied within him

He fought for it and then more

It captured 

Then 

Finally 

After struggle and pain

It shone brighter than the sun

Breaking all barriers 

He lit the world

A true inspiration

One who aspired to do good

One who had a heart of a common man

One was the envy of a leader man

Now he leaves the world

Now he leaves us

While he goes to heaven and shine with his light

His light here shimmers, The world bocomes dimmer 

We mourn, our loss

But his legacy shall live on

I pray, we pray 

That the belief in his purposes of his, live on

May we continue to fight 

May we continue to stay
