Rise in peace for Cambodia

(Verse 1) Silent fields where rice once grew, Now the sky wears fear’s dark hue. Children whisper, mothers pray, While shadows march and borders sway. (Verse 2) They paint us villains, twist the tale, Western screens don’t hear our wail. Fists of hate burn loud and bright, While we hold our lanterns of light. (Pre-Chorus) Oh, how long must the humble bleed? Chains of war on dreams they feed. (Chorus) We rise in peace, we stand so tall, No more fire, no more walls. Hands unarmed, yet hearts won’t yield, War must sleep—let the harvest heal. (Verse 3) Streets of gold they’ll never see, While the world turns cold, blind to plea. Kings and guns write history’s lie, But truth still blooms where temples rise. (Bridge) Oh, Cambodia, gentle land, Scars of war, yet still you stand. Not your name they’ll stain with rage, Love will outlive this darkened age. (Chorus - Repeat & Fade) We rise in peace, we stand so tall, No more fire, no more walls. Hands unarmed, yet hearts won’t yield, War must sleep—let the harvest heal. (Outro - Softly) Lay the weapons, still the storm, Enough of blood, enough of harm. One earth, one sky, one plea— Let Cambodia breathe free.
