La Unidad [English translation]

CHORUS

Unity is our force, our song, our hope

Rebellion is the bread of the people, division will be our death

VERSE 1

The smiles of our children are worth gold

Their faces are dirtied by misery, but their eyes still shine

Children of the blazing sun, children of the favelas

Children of the revolution, children of the barrios of Caracas

They are our treasure, our richness, our hope

Our one and only happiness, one minute each evening

The most beautiful day is that which lights us up

Our most beautiful day is them

Each day we pray for them

It's for them that we get up, for them that we stay standing

When the present tries to put us all on our knees

Our children, our day goes on

And for them we will fight, always

CHORUS

VERSE 2

Poverty is our sister, she has brought us up

Dust and sweat, all she has given us

She sticks to our skin, keeps us close to her

Decided to never let us fly with our own wings

For us each day is the same day without end

Each day ours are hungry, and hungry for some justifies the means

Violence has from now on become the rule

Unity gets further away each day, when confusion reigns

How many fratricidal and bloody confrontations

How many shots, day after day how many motionless bodies

How many overdoses in the dark corners of our shanty towns

How many moons, how many more years do we need

Division will certainly be our death

Our people are so proud, when they unite, they are so strong

This glimmer which stays with us when fate goes at us

This invincible hope has a name: Unity

CHORUS

Our children are our future

And for them we will always fight

Our children are our future

And for them we will fight FOREVER

The smiles of our children are worth gold

Their faces are dirtied by misery, but their eyes still shine

Children of the blazing sun, children of the favelas

Children of the revolution, children of the barrios of Caracas

It's for them that we get up, for them that we stay standing

When the present tries to put us all on our knees

Our children, our day continues

And for them we will fight always

Don't forget, comrade, that united people always triumph

Let's go forward, companion, and take the new path

United people will never be vanquished

Live the people, live the people!
