The sheer violence of the evil people,
The yells and cheers from the ignorant and frenzied spectators,
Make the quiet faith of true believers stand out even more.

Maintaining tranquility and peacefulness while being savagely beaten and kicked,
Feeling untouched by all the deafening sounds around them,
They have become the focal point of the entire boundless universe.

The silent cries from the hearts of Falun Gong practitioners,
Quietly rocked the swarming Square,
And touched this quiet and silent world.
