Van a Rodar Cabezas

If I have to die, it will be fighting
To see my people grow here
And I will lose in a sigh
What took me a lifetime to build

If I have to live, it won't be begging
For my culture and what I believed
If I have to fall, it will be at least fighting
So they don't kidnap my freedom

If I have to be silent, I will do it by letting
The wind from here speak for me
I don't want to see my people worshiping
A God who can't hear the Sun
If I have to shout, my hatred will rise
Such a storm that my anger will freeze you
If I have to kill, it won't be by murdering
The white man does it
Not to survive

I know the day will come
When freedom will rain
And written on the Moon
With the ink of a carnation

Freedom will be read
I know the day will come
When freedom will rain
And written on the Moon

With the ink of a carnation
Freedom will be read

Don't let melancholy
From your memory be the rearview mirror
Don't let a border succeed
In determining the country of a flower

If I have to shout, my hatred will rise
Such a storm that my anger will freeze you
If I have to kill, it won't be by murdering
The white man does it
Not to survive

I know the day will come
When freedom will rain
And written on the Moon

With the ink of a carnation
Freedom will be read

I kiss the ground and on my knees
I bid farewell to the sea
In another life I will return
Today heads will roll
Today heads will roll
