There, underground,
you are not sleeping, brother, comrade.
Your heart hears spring coming up
that, like you, the winds will be blowing away.
There, buried with your face towards the sun
the new earth covers your seed
the deep root will sink in
and the flower of the new day will be born.
The hands of the humble one will come to your wounded feet,
they will come sowing.
Your death will bring many lives,
and they will march to where you were going, while singing.
There where the criminal is hiding
your name affords many names to the rich one.
The one who burned your wings while they were flying
will not extinguish the fire of the poor.
Here, brother, here on the earth,
our soul fills with flags,
that go on
against fear,
they go on,
we will win.
