Fighting for Their Freedom

We must stand with them
not be duped by the madman
convinced to label them as rebels
when they are in the opposition

Not a mutiny, a coup of the military
this is an organic uprising
the people of the nation
fighting for their freedom

We must stand with them
praying for their freedom
that the madman would be removed
that he would give up his power

Now is the time
maybe on this day of prayer dawning
that this day they would be free
after so many years of repression

March 3, 2011/ March 4, 2011 in the Libyan timezones
the coming of a Friday day of prayers, which have been the days
of the largest protests in many of the countries in revolt
