英劇作家天慈‧敏特：這火炬是一道金光
【大紀元10月27日訊】以下是英國劇作家天慈‧敏特（Tinch Minter)為英國倫敦人權聖火傳遞儀式寫的一首詩《這火炬是一道金光》。
這火炬是一道金光
這火炬是一道金光
向全世界傳遞著信息
燃燒著正義的火焰
迸射著真理的光芒
帶著尊敬和理解的力量
與邪惡的勢力搏鬥
這火焰訴説著真理
烏雲難蔽日
邪不能壓正
善惡終有報
施暴者必須償還
惡勢力終將敗亡
這火炬散發著溫暖
照亮黑暗中的靈魂
撫慰酷刑後的傷痕
選擇了真、善、忍的人們
從中汲取著堅持的力量
這火焰代表著我們的愛
穿過暗夜傳到陰冷的牢房
給痛苦的人以勇氣
給衰弱的人以力量
給哀傷的人以安慰
以光亮對抗最後的黑暗
這火焰警示著世人
那些否定人類正義的人
那些壓制自由權利的人
那些以酷刑殘害他人的人
那些殺害善良生命的人
必將被釘在歷史的恥辱柱上
這火炬是我們的武器
對抗那些壓制言論的打手
那些躲避真理的懦夫
那些崇尚強權的小人
那些揮舞警棍的暴徒
還有那些盜取器官的屠夫
當我們點燃這熊熊的聖火
我們知道真理必將勝利
正義必將伸張
當我們傳遞這光明的聖火
我們知道這星火將燃遍世界
爲了人類的自由與尊嚴
This Torch is a light to throw
This torch is a light to throw
Its message throughout the world
Blazing with the fire of justice,
Burning with the glow of truth
Bright with the might of mutual respect,
In this fight against the forces of evil.
This flame is a statement of fact
That we all judged by each act
That the truth can not be dimmed,
That the wicked shall never win
That torture shall not be rewarded
And that force shall finally fail.
This torch is a flame to reach out
To those who have chosen truth,
Compassion and tolerance,
To those who are kept in the dark
To those who are under the lash
To those who are being thrashed.
This flame is a message of our love
In the darkness of the torture cells.
It sends courage to those who suffer
It sends strength to those who are weakened
It sends comfort to those who mourn
It sends light to defy the darkness.
Through this flame we send knowledge
That those who deny human justice
That those who defy rights of freedom
That those who maim and torture
That those who snuff out honest lives
Shall not win the race of honour.
And this torch is our weapon
Against those who gag others
Against those who hide from the truth
Against those who think might is right
Against those who wield batons
And against those who steal organs.
As we light this symbol of truth
Knowing that truth will conquer,
Knowing justice will be done
We send forth this torch of power
This power to set the world alight
In the fight for human rights.
