Lasantha my friend,
THEY killed off your body,
that was just your shell.
But your Vision and Mission,
no bullet can quell!
THEY scattered your blood,
slaughtered your flesh
and did you away.
This they did,
as your Vision and Mission,
caused them great disgrace!
Thus, strength you have given,
to us, your friends,
who scribe with more fervor,
to bring to an end,
THEY, who are upon us
from the depths of Hell!
