Exactly. I can't articulate very well the sense of desperate, anxious hope, pride, and fear I feel when I think about Timor-Leste's future. Xanana Gusmão, the national hero, is stepping down as prime minister. What happens when he and the president Taur Matan Ruak, another hero of the resistance, are no longer around? There has to be a will to keep going, to hold things together--which is what this song is trying to encourage. I hope and pray so hard.
