TORN BETWEEN TWO COUNTRIES
Tsoltim Ngima Shakabpa
   

Torn between two countries,
separated by boundaries.
One gave me birth
the other hearth.
One gave me my heritage
the other my children's parentage.
One taught me theocracy
the other gave me democracy.
For whom shall my loyalty be reserved?
Which country shall I loyally serve?
Torn between two countries,
separated by boundaries.
My heart will die for America and
my soul will live on for Tibet.
