【新唐人2016年06月02日訊】六四當年發生一週後,據說當時還是美國華盛頓大學學生的菲利普·摩根,被天安門廣場上年輕人的鮮血刺痛了雙眼,寫下了一首《廣場上的鮮血》,為中國的自由發聲。
六四27週年紀念日即將到來,回憶1989年,包括中、港、台三地的著名歌手,甚至不少外國人都曾唱過至今聽來仍讓人熱淚盈眶的歌曲,過去的27年間,也陸續有不少明星大腕或委婉或直接的為天安門廣場上的勇士們歌唱。
在六四發生一週後,美國人菲利普•摩根(Phillip Morgan)創作歌曲《廣場上的鮮血》,呼籲人們了解北京天安門上發生的一切。
歌詞講述了六四事件的整個過程,從學生廣場靜坐呼籲自由,再到當局血洗廣場,讓對政府滿懷著信任與希望的學生,血濺街頭,將天安門廣場染紅。

廣場上的鮮血
詞/曲: Phillip Morgan
A song was heard in China
In the city of Beijing.
In the spring of 1989
You could hear the people sing.
And it was the song of freedom
That was ringing in the square,
The world could feel the passion of
The people gathered there.
Oh, children, blood is on the square.
For many nights and many days,
Waiting in the square.
“To build a better nation"
Was the song that echoed there.
“For we are China’s children,
We love our native land,
For brotherhood and freedom
We are joining hand in hand."
Oh, children, blood is on the square.
Then came the People’s army
With trucks and tanks and guns.
The government was frightened
Of their daughters and their sons.
But in the square was courage and
A vision true and fair,
The Army of the People would not harm
The young ones there.
Oh, children, blood is on the square.
On June the 3rd in China,
In the spring of ’89,
An order came from high above
And passed on down the line.
The soldiers opened fire,
Young people bled and died,
The blood of thousands on the square
That lies can never hide.
Oh, children, blood is on the square.
For four more days of fury
The people faced the guns.
How many thousands slaughtered
When their grisly work was done?
They quickly burned the bodies
To hide their coward’s shame,
But blood is thick upon their hands and
Darkness on their names.
Oh, children, blood is on the square.
There are tears that flow in China
For her children that are gone.
There is fear and there is hiding,
For the killing still goes on.
And the iron hand of terror can
Buy silence for today,
But the blood that lies upon the square
Cannot be washed away.
Oh, children, blood is on the square
Oh, children, blood is on the square
Oh, children, blood is on the square
