Do you have the "right" to freedom, or the "desire" for freedom?

Both

And the "right" to have it for yourself, or the "desire" to see all have it?

Again, both.

I want freedom whether it is my right to have it or not.

I would agree, but I also think it is my right. This right is limited to the extent that it doesn't interfere with the rights of others. I might generally have a right to be free, but I don't have a right to be free to walk up to you and punch you in the nose.
