Freedom Is Never, Never Cheap

A famous orator once said:

“The Price of freedom is death”

Don’t expect to get full paid

For selling your freedom and your faith.

Freedom or liberty is never, never cheap

Liberty and democracy go hand

In hand. It’s not about selling your land

And your stand. There is a heavy price

To pay for freedom and democracy

Democracy is the opposite of anarchy

Demagoguery and hypocrisy

Never stop fighting for freedom

Keep on fighting for your pride and your home

Freedom is never, never for or on sale

There’s no special or outrageous price to sell

Integrity, unity, pride and decency

Terror can never defeat freedom

Terrorism is an evil, sick, egregious and deadly form

Democracy is about human rights and liberty

Dictatorship will fall eventually and gradually.
