When i was born


In the year 40, when I was born,
they still weren't all dead.

Many were left; they had won, they say.
Many were left; they had lost, they say.
Others knew exile and its ways.

In the year 40, when I was born,
I think that all, all of us had lost...

I haven't seen those deaths from anger,
I haven't seen those deaths from hunger,
I haven't seen those deaths at the front,
I haven't seen those deaths in the prisons.
No, I haven't seen them, and they've told me everything,
and still today in my country they tell of it,
and still today, with fear, those who have seen it tell of it.

No, I haven't seen it and I never wish to,
neither in the year 40, nor the year 70,
nor in any other year.

In the year 40, when I was born,
I think that all, all of us had all lost,
in the year 40.

(1966)
