I was forced to believe in the Christianity.
I was forced to leave my country
I was forced to leave my family
I was forced to leave my religion
I was forced to leave my freedom

I thought that it was unfair .
I thought that it was a violation to my rights.
I am not satisfied for the way these strangers treated us.
They came to our lands.
Made us believe in Christianity.
And made us work for them.

They took over.
Took our religion.
They took our home,
Our family,
Our life...

Our freedom...
