給敘利亞 For Syria

My language exchange partner's home country is Syria. She lives in Sweden, but her relatives live there. I worry about her family and her when I know the news of Syria from TV every time. I have never been there, but I can feel her pain.

Here is a song for Syria which is written by a Taiwan musician, named Zoe Huang. She wants to raise the awareness of Syria.

在所有新聞不斷播報十年前西九單o野,唐唐屋企有無潛建,天x海平台變地台的同時,有個國家的人民正遭受政治迫害,你們注意到了嗎?

別被媒體過度放大的憤怒蒙蔽了五官,敘利亞現正面臨孤立無援的窘境,你們願意一起來聲援他們嗎?



We feel so cold, there's no light
what we got is all the pain
No one cares what we been through
We live in a place named "hell"
There's no food, ain't water
Home sweet home wan't there
We tried to fight, but only could cry
Government won't stop 'til they got what they want
We tried to fight, but only cry

因為學英文,我認識了瑞典女生。因為她,我知道世上有個地方叫叙利亞。我會關心香港以外的新聞。

學語文,只是第一步去認識其他國家和文化,亦擴闊了自己的眼光。因為language exchange,讓我的世界除了香港,還有更多地方。

Because of language exchange and Swedish girl, I know Syria. I step out of my comfort zone, to know more about other countries and cultures with curiosity, to speak English with confidence, to meet new friends with heart. I love language exchange! :D
