Manuel, Soy Manuel José (Pasodoble)

Manuel
I'm Manuel Jose García
Son of this Andalucía
And proud to be born
Malagueño born
Malagueño

Manuel
I don't know if you remember
The one from December fourth
The one where Autonomy is my dream
Manuel
Shot dead in the chest

I am García Caparros
The one who saw in his land
A legacy, a homeland
A universe
Youth and rebellion
Ran in my blood
I had a future
Long and fruitful
I was eighteen
I had the strength
To live and change the world

And a bullet came
And broke my heart
Like an axe against wood
And in that protest
It forever stayed
At half-mast my flag
My white and green flag of hope
Of peace, glory, and prosperity
The one of land and freedom

I am García Caparros
Named Manuel Jose
You know who I am
I don’t know who you are
You who shot me
And still remain anonymous
It's been forty-eight years
Since a coward

Took my life
And even justice hides
From the nameless killers
Who, by killing my heart
Killed Andalucía
Killed Andalucía
