I’m only singing ”compañeros”

Listen, I’ve come to sing
for those who havefallen.
I give no names, nor descriptions.
I only say: com pañeros.

And I sing for the others,
those living.
staring the enemy
in the face.

There are no more secrets.
my song is the wind
I demand that everything
becomes action.

I give no names, nor descriptions.
I only say: com pañeros.
We have nothing left,
only one thing we can lose:

We can lose patience
and we ean only find it
by taking aim,
comrade.

Paper against bullets
can’t work,
unarmed songs
can’t face guns.

Long live the homeland being born
and shared among us all.
A free blood is coming,
bringing us a new life:

The blood of Túpac,
the blood of Amaru,
the blood that shouts:
“Free yourself, brother.”
