Azaadi (Freedom) rap at Khalsa Primary School camp Slough 2013







This is the moment, this is the time
Respect to the Gurus to the One sublime
Seva, Simran & Sacrifice
This is the Truth, This is no HYPE

Sacrifices made by valiant Sikhs
For freedom, justice, to keep the peace
They didn’t fight for wealth or land
Always offering a helping HAND

Azaadi – Freedom is the call
Azaadi – Walk strong and tall
Azaadi – Is the Gurus way
Azaadi – Don’t back away
Azaadi – In what we do
Azaadi – In what we say and choose

Guru Nanak, against all odds
Stood up to Babar, whatever the COST
Jo To Prem Khelan Ka Chao, Sir Dhar Talee Galee Meri Ayo
It maarag pair dhireeje, Sir Dheeje Kaan Na Keeje

If you want to play, the game of love
Don’t ponder and wither, don’t look above
Don’t be afraid, you are not alone
Follow my path, this is your HOME

Azaadi – Freedom is the call
Azaadi – Walk strong and tall
Azaadi – Is the Gurus way
Azaadi – Don’t back away
Azaadi – In what we do
Azaadi – In what we say and choose

The freedom of women, was his task
The Sati & Pardah, this is a farce
Guru Amar Dass spoke loud and clear
For all to listen and all to HEAR

Guru Arjan Dev for the right to believe
Bowed to the Will, for us to achieve
The courage and honour to keep my faith
To live with passion, pride and GRACE


Azaadi – Freedom is the call
Azaadi – Walk strong and tall
Azaadi – Is the Gurus way
Azaadi – Don’t back away
Azaadi – In what we do
Azaadi – In what we say and choose

Lighting a Diva or be it a candle
Free your mind of filth and scandal
Guru Hargobind set the trend
To think of others, to help and DEFEND

The freedom of Langar continues to amaze
Free for all and open all days
Whatever your background, caste or race
We are all equal in this special PLACE

Azaadi – Freedom is the call
Azaadi – Walk strong and tall
Azaadi – Is the Gurus way
Azaadi – Don’t back away
Azaadi – In what we do
Azaadi – In what we say and choose

Malcolm-X, Luther King and Nelson Mandela
Gandhis struggle and his endeavour
Constant talk of all these people
Their school of thought, “We are all EQUAL”

Hear up, take note of a bigger truth
Sis Ganj in Delhi, is the living proof
Guru Tegh Bahadur to protect humanity
Embraced shaheedi, this was INFINITY,

He took on the challenge and spoke the truth
The freedom to believe, there was no truce
He stood firm, for a noble cause
He did not falter, he did not PAUSE

Azaadi – Freedom is the call
Azaadi – Walk strong and tall
Azaadi – Is the Gurus way
Azaadi – Don’t back away
Azaadi – In what we do
Azaadi – In what we say and choose


This is my turban, this is my crown
I do not cry and I do not frown
I stand before you, fearless and proud
Be it alone or in a CROWD

The Gracious Leader, Guru Gobind Singh Ji
Embarked on a mission, to set us free
Drink this Amrit and keep these five
Ultimate freedom, you are now ALIVE

Azaadi – Freedom is the call
Azaadi – Walk strong and tall
Azaadi – Is the Gurus way
Azaadi – Don’t back away
Azaadi – In what we do
Azaadi – In what we say and choose

World War 1 & World War 2
We led from the front, we stood by you
Churchill saluted, the role Sikhs played
Why now the questions, why such a GAZE?

We are all British with a sense of pride
Standing up for truth, we never hide
Sava Laakh Se Ek Laraaon
Tabe Gobind Singh Naam Kahaoon

Azaadi – Freedom is the call
Azaadi – Walk strong and tall
Azaadi – Is the Gurus way
Azaadi – Don’t back away
Azaadi – In what we do
Azaadi – In what we say and choose

Eternal freedom is to tame the five
Attachment Lust Ego, Anger and pride
Deposit your account with the Gurus thought
Listen to the Hukam and ‘What Was TAUGHT’

Nishaan Sahib flies with all its glory
Sending a message, telling a story
Be humble, be kind and always true
This is the message that we sing to YOU!


The struggle and battle, continues today
The fight for justice, this is the way
Hawara, Bhullar, and so many more
Fighting the system, right to the CORE

Azaadi – Freedom is the call
Azaadi – Walk strong and tall
Azaadi – Is the Gurus way
Azaadi – Don’t back away
Azaadi – In what we do
Azaadi – In what we say and choose

Our Living Guru, Guru Granth Sahib Jee
Our Guide, Our Torch, to help us see
To help us deal with all our foes
Slowly erasing, all our WOES

Listen up take note, of the following words
A powerful statement, that must be heard
As I finish reciting, the daily Ardas –
-          May humanity prosper, we say from the HEART

Nanak Naam Chardhi Kala
Tere Bhaane Sarbat Da Bhalla
Nanak Naam Chardhi Kala
Tere Bhaane Sarbat Da Bhalla

Azaadi – Freedom is the call
Azaadi – Walk strong and tall
Azaadi – Is the Gurus way
Azaadi – Don’t back away
Azaadi – In what we do
Azaadi – In what we say and choose

Azaadi – Let’s sing together
Azaadi – Forever and ever
Azaadi – This is the truth
Azaadi – The Living Proof
Azaadi – Let’s walk the walk
Azaadi – Let’s talk the talk
