Set Nudem free
Set Nudem Durak free
Nudem Durak’s a singer
Imprisoned for her songs
Nineteen years in jail though she did nothing wrong
Being Kurdish is her crime
How can that be fair in our time?
Nudem must be free
The accusation was terror
The proofs they had were none
Her life and future’s stolen like so many other ones
Arrested miles from home and friends
Far away from helping hands
Just because she used her mother tongue
Her music flows like a river to the sea
And mingles with the waves of her Kurdish history
And we listen and we learn from her life what’s meant by freedom
Though you’re locked up and we are living free
We hear you Nudem and you make us see
That our life means nothing without solidarity
Set Nudem free
Set Nudem free
Set Nudem free
Set Nudem Durak free
Nudem’s dream was music
Since she was a girl
She sings about what happens in her so endangered world
Her mother sold the wedding ring
For a guitar so she could sing
What more can you do to show your love?
Her music flows like a river to the sea
And mingles with the waves of her Kurdish history
And we listen and we learn from her life what’s meant by freedom
Though you’re locked up and we are living free
We hear you Nudem and you make us see
That our life means nothing without solidarity
