Cruz de Luz [Camilo Torres] [English translation]

Where Camilo fell

a cross was born,

not of wood

but of light.

They killed him as he went

for his rifle,

Camilo Torres dies

to live.

It is said that after the bullet

a voice was heard.

It was God shouting:

Revolution!

Inspect the cassock,

my general,

a sexton fits

in the guerrilla army.

They nailed him with bullets

in a cross,

they called him outlaw

as they did Jesus.

And when they came down

for his rifle,

they found that the town

had one hundred thousand.

One hundred thousand Camilos

ready to fight,

Camilo Torres dies

to live.
