Title: 12letý Lukáš ze Vsetína složil a nazpíval hymnu pro autisty
Author: Veronika Hlaváčová
Length (in minutes): 2:45
Original language: czech
Name of station which broadcast the program: Český rozhlas Radiožurnál (2. 4. 2025)
As part of World Autism Awareness Day, he wanted to perform it with his class at the Czech Radio building in Prague. Lukáš’s plan worked out, and his catchy “Song for People with Autism” was broadcast nationwide on Radiožurnál.
"They aren’t abnormal; others accept them into society. So why does it actually bother them when they’re just different? If you’re autistic, you should know that your world isn’t any worse—if you learn to cope with problems, you can be happy in this world," sings Lukáš Týn, and the sixth-graders join in.
"The fact that they don’t get the humor—you can live with that. You can also live with the fact that they don’t look people in the eye. Autism is just a brain disorder, but it doesn’t make a person a wreck," goes the chorus.
