What is freedom?

We may not be free from debts,

Not free from poverty,

We may not be free from injustice and inequality...



Corruption is still there-

Fighting for survival, everywhere.

We may not be free from the marks of the past.

Or from being globally, social outcasts.



But being in a country which is not my own,

Seeing people, in their own land- disowned.

The refugees, the stateless people...

No nationality, limited boundaries to trudge on...



At least I have a country who calls me her child.

A flag to show, an anthem to sing...

A family to come 'home' to in all parts of the world.

A currency to work for...for whatever it's worth.



And for those things, I shout out:

**MABUHAAAAAAAAAYYYYY!!!

Mabuhay ka pinoy- kahapon, ngayon at bukas!!!

Mabuhay ka Inang Bayan!!!



Para sa kalayaang magbago,

Para sa kalayaang mangarap,

Para sa kalayaang magpahayag

Para sa kalayaang MABUHAY.



Sa panahon ngayon...wala ng bansa ang tunay na malaya.



----------------



**Long live!

Long live to you Filipino- yesterday, today and tomorrow!!!

Long live mother land!!!



For the freedom to change

For the freedom to dream

For the freedom of democracy

For the freedom to live.



In the present time...no nation is truly free.
