As language, as religion,
As race, as color,
Oh my, how many divisions!
Only while staying alone in the dark,
Is freedom realized as a boon.
மொழியாய் மதமாய்
இனமாய் நிறமாய்
எத்தனை பிரிவுகள் அடடா
தனியாய் இருளில் இருக்கும் பொழுதே
தெரியும் விடுதலை வரமாய்
You laughed, you hated,
You sowed seeds of malice,
In the end, you lost your peace of mind.
With division and money lust, mercilessly in the dirt,
Why did you bury humanity?
பிரித்தாய் வெறுத்தாய்
வன்மம் விதைத்தாய்
கடைசியில் நிம்மதி தொலைத்தாய்
பிரிவினை பணவெறி பரிவின்றி புழுதியில்
ஏன் நீ மனிதத்தை புதைத்தாய்
Showing off flags,
You drew border lines.
Dividing through lines,
You built up nations.
In between these nations,
You sowed seeds of war.
In the midst of wars,
You burned down humanity.
கொடிகளை காட்டி
கோடுகள் கிழித்தாய்
கோடுகள் பிரித்து
நாடுகள் வளர்த்தாய்
நாடுகள் நடுவே
போர்களை விதைத்தாய்
போர்களின் நடுவில்
மனிதத்தை எரித்தாய்
Searching for a new dawn,
Searching for answers,
Seeking liberation,
We turned into refugees.
The coming times,
Will change through love.
This is our nation,
A breath of freedom,
விடியலை தேடி
விடைகளை தேடி
விடுதலை தேடும்
அகதிகள் ஆனோம்
இனி வரும் காலம்
அன்பால் மாறும்
இது நம் தேசம்
சுதந்திர சுவாசம்
A breath of freedom,
This is our nation.

Driven by greed and malice, humanity has waged wars that ultimately destroy peace and turn innocent people into refugees. Despite the dark reality of conflict, the track delivers a message of hope, declaring that future generations can overcome these divides through love, unity, and a shared breath of freedom.
