We thought it was for liberation and development,
We thought it was for independence, freedom, peace and democracy,
We thought it was for diversity, tolerance and progress,
That’s what we signed up for, didn’t we?
It’s what we fought for!
Now tell me my comrades,
Were we promised restraint,
And being served with a siege,
By the tyranny we did not foresee,
To which subservience is sacred!
Oh! Tell me they were dreams and fantasies?
For now we have to fight again, just to breathe,
Only that we can see, hear, smell,
Taste and touch,
A barbaric fight indeed, just for our life!
