La Colmena [English translation]

The sun shines, everything is under control

A new day begins at the beehive

I want everyone to get ready to work

My word is the strongest doctrine

They've learned how to respect, they know who to praise

That's it, get started with activity

You've forgotten we exist and we are here

The same nightmare that doesn't let you sleep

We're the weed you tried to remove

As much as you try, we will sprout back

We are the fears that will provoke your depression

As bacterium proliferate in an infection

We make you retch, we're worm in your apple

Sooner or later we will end up with the humiliation

Oh! oh! Oh! Oh! Humiliation?!

Here it is, here I am, uprising at the beehive

There they go, there I go, we go after you

Here it is, here I am, we're a product of the system

There they go, there I go, we go after you

Yes, I am the fire of the justice

Yes, we are the fire of the justice

Oh! oh! Oh! Oh!...

In the depressed areas there's a feeling of revolution

The rebelliousness is provoked by the situation

Of a system that protects those who have more

We are not puppets you can manipulate

Workers, immigrants and unemployed people are

The ones who suffer this fucking state's disdain

I hope they burst from East to West:

Governors, democratized dictators

Oh! oh! Oh! Oh! Democratized?!

Here it is, here I am, uprising...

Yes, I am the rabble of this country

Yes, we are waiting for Sarkozy's Kärcher*

Yes, I am the fire of the justice

Yes, we are the fire of the justice

The sun shines, everything is out of control

It's the fire that lights your beehive
