53 souls on the streets of Shiraz
Out to share their message of love
with youth from deprived backgrounds
breezes of confirmation floating around

All were captured and put into a cell
Their social deeds were thus ignored
into deep grounds they fell
Mis-judgement of their Baha'i belief
the cause of such grief

Confined in a prison
captured for their passion
May God burst their cage asunder
and let their souls soar

Haleh, Sasan, Raha you are the same age as me
29, 32, 33
imprisoned in a cell without a bed or a chair
without medicine, movement or a bit of fresh air

I cannot understand
how you deal with such pain
Injustice, maltreatment
where is the gain
Your souls must be so strong
to be tested like this

Confined in a prison
captured for your passion
May God burst your cage asunder
and let your souls soar.

Lyrics (Written By N. Moghaddam, C.Heins, K.Rushdy)

Nabil:
They can take my life away
But this love will never change
They can take my rights away
But I'll grow stronger everyday

Chelsea-Lyne:
Its my right to live a life that's free
My right to simply be a citizen
Who believes in world equality
We shouldn't have to hide
Or feel the need to cower
Our beliefs shape who we are
They give us inner power
With our heads held high we shall walk on
With utmost love in our hearts we remain strong
They ask the question, we refuse.
Because it is our right to choose

They can take my life away
But this love will never change
They can take my rights away
But i'll grow stronger everyday

Karim:
In the silence of this courtroom
I closed my eyes and saw the future
Around the time that we heard from the prosecutor
And your honour I think you've already made your choice
So to the jury, please excuse me if I rejoice
Cause it was years ago, back when I decided to save
A place inside my heart where Baha'u'llah's resided
And my family all around the world will watch and pray
So I am not alone. Will I surrender?
Not today.

They can take my life away
But this love will never change
They can take my rights away
But i'll grow stronger everyday

Its my right to an education,
My right to the living I'm making
And yet they keep taking away from me
My material possessions have be ruined and put to pieces
My spirit remains a whole, my attachment thus decreases
Still in this day though times have changed,
They haven't changed enough
The friends must hide, obey,
Pray to avoid themselves handcuffed
Battle's changed but sacrifice remains the same
This is my devotion that ignites my inner flame

They can take my life away
But this love will never change
They can take my rights away
But i'll grow stronger everyday
