Lyrics of “Freedom”:

დავი
[მუსიკა]
ფისუფლება და ბანი და დონი ქელია ძელი
გადიან ტოლი ელი და მინი და თვალი
არასდროს დავთმოთ ესა და მთალი როგორც
ბალახის
სურნელი ცის
ნამიწყარა თავისუფლების
წყურვილი სამშობლომ გულითა

გული თავისუფლება
ჩემშია და როგორც ჩვენი
სიცოცხლე სამშობლო
ერთადერთია ეს
მსეწბურს დანათებს
წევს სამშობლოს თემსა
სადაზვრებს იმედით გავყვებით
გზებსა ლუჯი
დაუბრულოცა მშვიდი და მღელმარე
ზღვა არ მინდა სიმდიდრე ზღვა
Freedom is a heaven we
