Celebrating with the Heroes

More to do in the coming months
but joy breaking out
celebrating with the heroes
returning to the square

Hope in a future
guided by freedoms
a voice for the people
redefining a nation

A day of prayer, holy
in gathering together
joy in the newness
of the freedom from the tyrant
