كلمات اغنية free |
| As you sit there looking at me
|  | What goes through your mind? |
| That you think I’m so oppressed
|  | Well I can tell from your looks |
| But I don’t need for you to liberate me
|
| And you can’t see my covered hair
|  | My head is not bare |
| And you judge me with your glare
|  | So you sit there and you stare |
| But are you not aware
|  | You’re sure I’m in despair |
| I have feelings, and I do care
|  | Under this scarf that I wear |
| CHORUS:
|
| So don’t you see?
|
| This piece of scarf on me
|  | That I’m truly free |
| To preserve my dignity...
|  | I wear so proudly |
| My integrity
|  | My modesty |
| Open your eyes and see...
|  | So don’t judge me |
| “Why can’t I just be me?” she says
|  | “Why can’t you just accept me?” she says |
| You speak of democracy
|  | Time and time again |
| And all I want is equality
|  | Yet you rob me of my liberty |
| Why can’t you just let me be free?
|
| My sister, may you always be strong
|  | For you I sing this song |
| How you suffer so much
|  | From you I’ve learnt so much |
| You walk with no fear
|  | Yet you forgive those who laugh at you |
| Your wish so sincere
|  | Through the insults you hear |
| But before you walk away
|  | That they’d understand you |
| This time you turn and say:
|
| But don’t you see?
|
| This piece of scarf on me
|  | That I’m truly free |
| To preserve my dignity
|  | I wear so proudly |
| My integrity
|  | My modesty |
| She says with a smile
|  | So let me be |
| I’m the one who’s free |
