Oración a La Justicia
María Elena Walsh
Prayer to Justice
Lady with blindfolded eyes
Who is in the courts
Without seeing the lawyers
Come down from your pedestals
Take off the blindfold and look
How much lie!
Update the scale
And attack with the sword
Because without your good offices
We are nothing
Wash us of blood and ink
Resurrect the innocent
And make the dead bury
The file
Scare away the black birds
Annihilate the worms
And may the men
Shake hands at your feet
Illuminate the sleeping judge
Appease all war
And become queen forever
Of our land
Lady with blindfolded eyes
With the sword and the scale
To the humiliated just
Do not steal their hope
Give them reason and cry
Because it's time
