[Verse 1]
I stood by the shore and I said what I thought
About Kudankulam near our homes
I spoke of fish and children at night
They said I was speaking against the state

I was not asking for anything grand
I only asked what came from that plant
They called it sedition for saying those things
Did I sell secrets to Pakistan?

[Chorus]
Did I sell secrets to Pakistan?
Or did I say too much?
If nuclear is so clean and safe
Why call my worry sedition?

Did I sell secrets to Pakistan?
Or did I step out of place?
If nuclear is so clean and safe
Why answer me with handcuffs?

[Verse 2]
They spoke of progress, they spoke of pride
They spoke as if nuclear was care
I spoke of water, boats, and nets
They answered like I should not be there

Now I am wiser, now I am calmer
Now I repeat what they told me is true
If someone gets sick, it must be something else
Nuclear saves lives, or so they say

[Chorus]
Did I sell secrets to Pakistan?
Or did I  say too much?
If nuclear is so clean and safe
Why call my worry sedition?

Did I sell secrets to Pakistan?
Or did I step out of place?
If nuclear is so clean and safe
Why charge me and put me in handcuffs?

[Bridge]
Now I get it, now I understand
Nuclear is clean
Now I get it, now I understand
It was only me

Now I get it, now I understand
I was making trouble then
Nuclear is kind and clean
That’s what I say now here

[Final Chorus]
Did I sell secrets to Pakistan?
I only spoke of our shores
If nuclear is so clean and safe
Why am I quieter now?

Did I sell secrets to Pakistan?
I only asked what it means
Now when they speak of a future built on nuclear
I say that nuclear is clean
