Sólo le pido a Dios [English translation]

All I ask of God

That indifferent to pain I won’t be

That a dried-up death will not find me

Alone and empty without acting sufficiently

All I ask of God

That indifferent to unfairness I won’t be

That my other cheek will not be struck rudely

After a claw has mauled my destiny

All I ask of God

That indifferent to injustice I won’t be

If one traitor can do more than so many

That the many won’t forget so easily

All I ask of God

That indifferent to war I won’t be

It’s a montrous boot that crushes with no mercy

The meager innocence of the needy

All I ask of God

That indifferent to deception I won’t be

If one traitor can do more than so many

That the many won’t forget so easily

All I ask of God

That indifferent to the future I won’t be

Of the dispossesed who had to cruelly flee

To a different culture forcefully
