    Story Behind the Song
    Voice of Freedom inspires the whole world to unite against terror. Originally written with a more modest objective, the lyrics include the original 1948 voice of M A Jinnah, founder of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan Representing a call for peace from the past combined with a rallying call of a young person from both east and west, these words now have a deeper significance, post September 11th 2001.

    The music was composed by a British music director and the song is sung by a 14 year old British, Pakistani Christian. It calls all to live lives of Unity, Discipline and Faith in order to overcome the evils of the times in which we live.

    Based on the original July 2001 recording, in a private studio in London, this edition of a momentous song is for everyone, especially in these unusual days.

    Lyrics
    "The success of our achievements will depend upon our Unity, Discipline and Faith" (M.A.Jinnah,1948)

    Unity
    Is all about you and me
    Living in harmony
    Learning to give and to forgive
    So all the world can see

    Our Discipline,
    Power of not giving in
    To the evil times we're living in
    Keeping control of body and soul
    And never letting go

    Our faith, pure faith
    Not the words some people say
    But doing good from day to day
    Holding tight to all that's right
    And standing firm when others turn
    Against the Voice of Freedom:

    Chorus
    Discipline, Faith and Unity
    Give us our opportunity
    To build a real community,
    A truly free society.
    Unity, Faith and Discipline,
    This is what we're believing in,
    This is the truth we're living in,
    Discovering, delivering.

    It makes me cry
    To see my brother die
    With hatred in his eye,
    A little boy with grown-up toys
    Who knew no other way.

    Why can't we see
    That we were meant to be
    Like one big family?
    It's time to heal the pain we feel
    And join our hearts to make

    A holy land
    In the way God always planned
    Let's take our peaceful stand
    Against the lies that hypnotise
    Turn away from what they say
    And hear the Voice of Freedom:

    Chorus

    "Unity, Discipline and Faith, not only in ourselves but in God, who determines the destinies of the peoples of the nations" (M.A.Jinnah,1948)
