Verse 1
a playwright and theatre director
F
C
called Safdar Hashmi
was murdered on the streets
near Delhi.
His street theatre is said to have stressed on the right to
G
C
speak out freely against oppression.
He's a long lost story
Am
C
and a half -forgotten name
F
How can I help it if I still feel ashamed?
F
and there's no one to blame officially
C
Coz in a land where leaders
buy off their votes
F
G
A pen can never be as strong as a sword
So the playwright gets written
F
C
off the open roads of Delhi
F
It could have been in Lucknow or Lebanon,
F
He could have been a Hindu, a Baptist,
F
C
But the dirty side of the facts still remains.
C
free to write what he had to say,
F
free to put up a roadside play,
F
C
and free to be slain on the streets.
F
C
Oh, freedom, freedom, what does it mean?
G

C
I know what it meant,
G
yes I know what it meant,
F
Fm
C
I know what it meant to hush me,
Shakespeare you see,
F
neither did he hobnob at NSD
Dm
G
Could be dispensed with
F
C
quite easily on the roads
Still a woman named Shabana
stood up and cried
F
And the rest of the audience
And I know that on that fate
F
C
ful night she was alone
C
that someone will understand
and politics
C
And everyone's free to lock their doors
running like before
G
F
And hired hoodlums beat
F

Oh, freedom, freedom, what does it mean?
F
C
I know what it meant, yes,

G
Em
Am
Bm
G
freed at midnight
betrayed poor Christ
G
F
Go on repeating the lies of history
C
A history that'll keep rolling on and on
F
And I'm free to sing my freedom song,
G
F
feel proud of the land where we belong,
F
Cause a song is a song who cares,
C
and who the hell sings only lies
C
Dm
is always free to die on the streets
C
And if you still find it hard to conceive
you can also deceive
G
You're free to turn away,
F
C
not believe in me
F
C
Oh, freedom, what does it mean
G
F
C
I know what it meant, yes,
F
Fm
C
I'm old, but it meant to hush me
