"Inalienable" means that these rights - to life, to liberty, and such - cannot be taken from you, or even be voluntarily surrendered.
You have a right to life. You cannot give up your right to life even if you wanted to. If you sold your right to life to someone else and he killed you, it would still be murder - because you can't give up that right, and he can't buy it from you.
