Simplified Meaning:

To gain freedom, people often have to fight hard for it instead of just asking for it politely. Throughout history, many nations and groups have struggled and even gone to war to achieve their independence. For example, during the American Revolution, colonists didn't just ask the British government to grant them freedom; they took up arms and fought for it. This shows that sometimes, to earn something as valuable as freedom, you have to be prepared to make sacrifices and take determined action. It's a way of saying that significant achievements require effort and determination, not just requests. In your own life, this wisdom teaches you that if you truly want something important, such as a major goal or a dream, you need to be ready to work hard and face challenges instead of waiting for someone to hand it to you.
