I long for freedom,
Just as the young eagle longs for the blue sky,
How urgent;
I long for freedom,
Just as the fish in the shallows long for the boundless sea,
How firm;
I long for freedom,
Like a petrel rushing into the sky in a storm,
Fearless;
What makes me so persistent,
A term that has been pursued for thousands of years-freedom,
Physical freedom is not freedom,
True freedom comes from the deep heart.
