You are my freedom
I preserved you in me
like a star in the storm
You are my freedom
you helped me to stand
every sorrow every pain
To walk in the paths of my destiny
until I will be like a tree in the fall
And to dream under the moon beams
and to keep on walking
You are my freedom
For your own sake
I broke my promise to you
You are my freedom
And to keep my pact with you
I (even) sold my (last) shirt
I have suffered much, and had pain without end
Only for you to give me your trust
I left my country and the best of my friends
and I am only yours
You are my freedom
you told me to give up on
all things delightful and pleasant
You are my freedom
you taught my heart
to be happy when I was lonely
You taught me to smile
in front of an opportunity that passed by
To lick my wounds in hiding and to get up
and keep on going
You are my freedom -
on one cold night
I broke my promise to you
And alone
I deserted the path
we both had walked together
I have betrayed you my good freedom
and walked to prison with sadness
To the warm jail that is called love
I was taken like a boy
And a beautiful warden with a lavish gesture
locked the gate
