You bind my hands,
you throw me in the ocean,
and yet foolishly say:
Do not get wet!
I was born free,
with free hands,
free brain,
so set me free,
do not enslave me.
Break the chain!
Let me dream!
in the name of God,
let me dream!
Am I allowed to dream of a world
where the lion lives in peace
with his jungle mate,
and the rich sit with the poor
eating from the same plate?
Let me dream of a world
where the bread is for all,
milk for all,
