¿Que Dirá El Santo Padre?
Violeta Parra
What Will the Holy Father Say?
Look how they talk to us about freedom
When in reality they deprive us of it
Look how they preach tranquility
When authority torments us
What will the Holy Father say
Who lives in Rome
That they are slitting his throat
And that of his dove?
Look how they talk to us about paradise
When bullets rain down on us like hail
Look at the enthusiasm with the sentence
Knowing they were already killing innocence
What will the Holy Father say
Who lives in Rome
That they are slitting his throat
And that of his doves?
The one who officiates death like an executioner
Is calmly having his breakfast
It's nice to sedate the wheat for what's sown
Watered with your blood, Julián Grimao
What will the Holy Father say
Who lives in Rome
That they are slitting his throat
And that of his dove?
The more injustices, Mr. Prosecutor
The stronger my soul is to sing
With this, they imposed the noose around the neck
The sixth commandment has no seal
What will the Holy Father say
Who lives in Rome
That they are slitting his throat
And that of his dove?
