Crave For Freedom
Pravat Kumar Mandal
In ruthless oppression, inhuman, injustice
In the Tsunami of blood, the helpless cry:
Freedom was only one demand
The freedom for free of the country.
Thousands of lives didn't reach their finishing line
Thousands of women silently crying and frozen
Thousands of mothers waiting for their son to return
But the freedom songs sung in chorus by the children
The children who lost their fathers
We call them freedom fighters
We call them great patriots
We call them immortal martyrs.
One day that auspicious moment came
But alas! Where is the freedom?
Identity and dreams are getting blurred
Even today people are under the wild shame
Inside the human ear can be heard
The crave for freedom, the longing for freedom
The most unromantic but strong slogan:
I want freedom, I want freedom.
