A Desalambrar [English translation]

I ask those present

if they haven't begun to think

that this land is ours

and not of the man who has more.

I ask if you never

would have thought of the land,

that if these hands are ours,

what they give us is ours.

To tear down the fences, to tear down the fences,

That this land is mine, yours, whoever's,

Pedro and Maria's, Juan and Jose's.

If I annoy with my song

someone that walks through here,

I assure you that he is a gringo

or an Uruguayan landlord.

To tear down the fences, to tear down the fences

That our land is mine, yours, whoever's

Pedro and Maria's, Juan and Jose's
