Listen For The Bells (Revised)

Listen for the fragile bells of hope
As they begin to chime!
Beautiful, silvery, chimes,
May they grow stronger
And flood the air
With their hollow throats blonging
And clonging, until
until the soul throbs and sobs
and transmogrifies with the bells.
Until their vibrations fill the not only the earth,
but the heavens, too!
Justice they shall boom,
Justice they shall bellow,
Justice for the people of Darfur!
