Herminda de La Victoria [English translation]

Herminda of La Victoria

died not having fought,

justice went to heaven

with its chest pierced.

The subordinates' bullets

killed the innocent girl,

mothers and brothers cried

in the midst of the people.

Brothers became everything,

brothers in poverty

fighting against wolves

fighting for a house.

Herminda of La Victoria

was born in the middle of mud,

grew up like a butterfly

in a captured piece of land.

We made the settlement

and it has rained three winters.

Herminda, in our hearts

we will keep your memory.
