La Muralla
Quilapayún
The Wall
To make this wall
Bring me all the hands
The blacks, their black hands
The whites, their white hands
A wall that goes
From the beach to the mountain
From the mountain to the beach
Over there on the horizon
Tun, tun!
Who is it?
A rose and a carnation
Open the wall!
Tun, tun!
Who is it?
The Colonel's Sabre
Close the wall!
Tun, tun!
Who is it?
The dove and the laurel
Open the wall!
Tun, tun!
Who is it?
The worm and the centipede
Close the wall!
To the heart of a friend
Open the wall
To poison and to the dagger
Close the wall
To myrtle and mint
Open the wall
To the serpent's tooth
Close the wall
To the heart of a friend
To the nightingale in the flower
Open the wall
Let's raise this wall
Putting all hands together
The blacks, their black hands
The whites, their white hands
A wall that goes
From the beach to the mountain
From the mountain to the beach
Over there on the horizon
