The National Anthem<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the song I sang every day since I first started school. The song I love\u2014the one that gave me goosebumps as I sang it. The song sung by every citizen of Myanmar. The song beloved by all Myanmar nationals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But when we sing it, are we truly singing from the depths of our hearts? Or are we just mouthing the words? Do we feel the profound meaning behind it? These are questions we shouldn\u2019t even need to ask.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why shouldn\u2019t we have to ask? Because our country has endured civil war for over 70 years. And the people long for peace and freedom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If we truly desire peace and freedom, Then we must sing the words of our national anthem with conviction\u2014 And act upon them with sincerity from the heart. Only then will peace be possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Right now, we\u2019re just shouting the lyrics with our mouths, And that\u2019s why freedom, justice, and peace continue to elude us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do we truly want peace?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If so, then let us not stray from justice and liberty. Let us sing from the heart:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur nation, our land, May all people live in peace, In a country of equal rights and pure ideals.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let us not only sing these words, But bring them to life through our actions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If we uphold justice, If we uphold liberty, If we uphold equality with pure intent\u2014 Then every person will have the chance to taste the sweetness of peace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
