Dear Friends of Tibet, We hope you are moved by Highway To Lhasa Dedicated to peace in Tibet, the central theme of the song is expressed in its narrated sonnet: What makes a nation great is not its size It's not the missiles not its fearsome hosts It's not the buildings not the oil supplies It's not some worn-out tales of ancient ghosts Its people hold the secret of its power Its people who disdain the way of force Though murderous oppression knell the hour Its peaceful people turn their country’s course For who will stop the army of the meek And who can bend the will that has no fear And who will quell the wailing of the weak The cry for freedom agonized and clear The mighty crush the small and have their way But peaceful souls will rise to win the day It is my fervent hope that the public will awaken to the ongoing human tragedy in Tibet as a matter of "justice and morality," which is how it was described by H H Dalai Lama in Boston recently. Toward that end, please consider sharing Highway To Lhasa with friends and supporters. Thank you. Best regards, Frank Tedesco Gloucester, MA www.highwaytolhasa.com frankforlhasa@gmail.com
