February 16th is the day when the voice of Lithuania rang out in the name of Freedom. With the belief that freedom is not a gift, but a choice that we make every day anew. Let us celebrate Lithuania the way we know best – by being together, as a living feeling in the chest. Let us sing for ourselves and for our homeland, which is alive as long as we feel it!
