Bishop Tom’s Freedom Song.

Freedom is the noblest thing
As sought after, all the world around,
That freedom may well bear.
Do you want to be self-respecting,
You love freedom more than gold,
For freedom follows honor.

Freedom can be likened to a tower (Moral highground),

Where the guard blows in his horn:

It sounds so clear and wide!
If from that tower you leave, because
another forced your hands,
Then you shed tears fighting.

Have you got freedom in hand,
Good luck and tie on the bond,
That she does not forgive you;
She resembles the falcon, proud and quick;
If once he has flown away (deserted you),
You won’t get him back again.

Now I advise you: love freedom,
If granted you notice what freedom is,
What faithful she brings you!
She brings peace and salvation home,
Devotion and joy to all of them,
As the most shaded by her wings.

Freedom comforts by its very name,
Freedom is a port of victory,
Who always will guard their own, the rightful,
A harbor that protects against wind and wave;
Freedom protects high and low,
For freedom should be pleged.

You noble Swede, you are stuck now
And better it! which so far gone wrong!
Don’t let your hawk turn away!
You dare your neck and then your hand
To protect your own native country!
God will send you comfort!

A bird values ​​its nest on twig,
So do the wild animals for sure,
Now notice, what you should do!
God has given you heart and soul:
Rather be free than another’s slave,
As long as you can move/ as long as you live!
