Glory to Hong Kong

( English translation of the lyrics by Margaret Ng )

My land, why are tears fast falling ?

People, why does your anger rage ?

Head high!  Break this silence and cry :

Freedom belongs to this place !

Dark fears can never be erased,

But faith will guide us all the way.

Advance!  Even through blood and tears,

For our Hong Kong free and bright !

The stars are fallen, darkness reigns,

Through fog and mist, a clarion call from far :

Gather here! Stand firm together! For liberty we fight !

Courage, wisdom will never die !

See ! Dawn breaks ! Hong Kong again clothed in light !

O daughters and sons, for justice in our time

May freedom and democracy for ever live

May glory be to thee, Hong Kong !
