Lyrics
Es una carta dirigida para ti En ella te dice que no tienes porque sufrir
cuida de padre, los hermanos y la abuela
lleva el trigo al horno y allí pagarás el pan
Recibid de mi muchos besos y abrazos
sed en la vida como yo os he enseñado
no lloreis por mi porque esto sea asi
que yo me voy tranquila porque no he hecho nada malo
Ya no miras hacia el cielo, que no te vean llorar
Ya no recuerdas su cara, sabías que la iban a matar…
a matar
Ella solo protestó porque no veia justo
que a las mujeres les raparan la cabeza
y las pasearan por las calles entre insultos
mientras los fascistas comulgaban en la iglesia
Ya no miras hacia el cielo, que no te vean llorar
Ya no recuerdas su cara, sabías que la iban a matar…
a matar
(Gracias a guille por esta letra)
Lyrics translation
It's a letter addressed to you in it tells you you don't have to suffer
take care of father, brothers and grandmother
bring the wheat to the oven and there you will pay for the bread
Receive from me many kisses and hugs
thirst in life as I have taught you
don't cry for me because this is how it is
that I'm leaving easy because I've done nothing wrong
You don't look up to Heaven Anymore, don't let them see you cry
You don't remember her face anymore, you knew they were gonna kill her.…
killing
She just protested because she didn't see fair
that women shave their heads
and they'll walk them through the streets amid insults
while the fascists were communing in the church
You don't look up to Heaven Anymore, don't let them see you cry
You don't remember her face anymore, you knew they were gonna kill her.…
killing
(Thanks to guille for this letter)
