Where Is The Freedom It Comes As I Like?

Where is the freedom it comes as I like?

by SHANTHA TELDENIYA

No way can ride on a bike as I like.
No way can swim in a lake as I like.
No way can learn in a school as I like.
Where is the freedom it comes as I like?

No way can speak the truth as I like.
No way can write the words as I like.
No way can live in a place as I like.
Where is the freedom it comes as I like?

No way can see the birds as I like.
No way can see the rivers as I like.
No way can see the flowers as I like.
Where is the freedom it comes as I like?

No way can breathe the air as I like.
No way can drink the water as I like.
No way can eat the food as I like.
Where is the freedom it comes as I like?

No way can meet the people as I like.
No way can see the ruler as I like.
No way can live in a country as I like.
Where is the freedom it comes as I like?
