Lyrics
Breyten zuen izena: Breyten Breytenbach
Hiltzera zigortua
Pretoriako kartzelan txuri bakarra
beltz askoren artean
Egunsenti bakoitzan exekuzio bat
heriotza tantaka
Lurra ireki baino lehen azken kantua bat
kantatzen omen zuen kondenatuak
Breyten esnatzen zuten
hiltzera zihoazenen
kantu ezberdin horiek
egunero batek
Breyten libratu egin zen urkatik
baina inolaz ere kantu horietatik
Kondenatua
Lyrics translation
He name Breyten: Breyten Breytenbach
Punished to die
Pretoria prison in white only
among the many black
Each execution of a dawn
dripping death
The last song before the open of the earth a
he seems condemned to sing
They wake up in Breyten
most went to die
these different songs
every day a
Breyten was made free from the gallows
but from this song in any way
Condemned
