De Tanto Pelear

The soul of a gaucho becomes life
When planted in the earth
Angels in traditional dress cry out for justice
Even if it's in a funeral cry
Of war

Rise up, soul of the countryside
In a missal of feelings
Give us peace, the right to the land
From where the firmament springs
And bless this group of gauchos
Riding in the wind

I woke up covered
With the flag of Rio Grande
I broke the horse's leg
From so much fighting

Let the horses rise
That have gone astray
Wrapped in the flag
I give a shout from the gate
To Saint Peter up in heaven

I heard prayers, laments, shouts
Of those who came and went
A candle lit and the sky opening
From so much fighting

And I still see from up here
The beloved border
And my people who never tire
From so much fighting
