In a democracy
The people need facts
So we can judge
The rulers we make
When governments lie
Or hide the truth
They surrender
Their fragile mandate
When citizens learn
That governments kill
Some risk their lives
For our right to know
Wikileaks they trust
And Julian Assange
Should be hailed
As the people’s hero
Imprisoned for a decade
By foes of democracy
Despots who claim
They act in our name
Torture him mentally
Near drive him insane
These Anglophone hypocrites
Bring nothing but shame
Julian is a martyr
For truths we are owed
He’s in prison dying
And him we should hail
Thank him reward him
Not leave him lying
Broken in spirit
Alone in some jail
Set Julian free
Forget your secrets
These are just another
Name for lies
Unlock the prison
Holding democracy
Set Julian free
Free Julian Assange
Set Julian free
Free Julian Assange
The people need facts

Liberate JulianIn democrazia
La gente ha bisogno di fatti
Affinché possiamo giudicare
I governanti che creiamo
Quando i governi mentono
O nascondono la verità,
Essi rinunciano
Al loro delicato mandato
Se i cittadini vengono a sapere
Che i governi uccidono,
C'è chi rischia la vita
Per il nostro diritto a sapere,
Si fidano di Wikileaks
E Julian Assange
Dovrebbe essere acclamato
Come eroe popolare
Imprigionato per un decennio
Dai nemici della democrazia.
I despoti che pretendono
Di agire in nostro nome
Lo torturano psicologicamente,
Lo fanno quasi impazzire,
Questi ipocriti anglofoni
Apportano solo vergogna
Julian è un martire per le verità
Di cui gli siamo riconoscenti.
Sta morendo in prigione
E lo dovremmo acclamare,
Ringraziare, ricompenare,
E non lasciarlo lì a crepare
Spezzato nello spirito,
Solo in una galera.
Liberate Julian,
Scordatevi i vostri segreti,
È solo un altro nome
Per “bugie”
Spalancate la prigione
Che rinchiude la democrazia
Liberate Julian
Liberate Julian Assange
Liberate Julian
Liberate Julian Assange!

Julian Assange has been imprisoned without trial for over a decade. His treatment is a shame for England, the USA and for Australia, which should be protesting about the mistreatment of one of its citizens. - Soundcloud: Song for Julian
