Lyrics
Hermano dame tu mano,
Vamos juntos a buscar
Una casa pequeñita
Que se llama libertad.
Esta es la hora primera,
Este es el justo lugar
Abre la puerta que afuera
La tierra no aguanta más.
Mira adelante hermano
Es tu tierra la que espera
Sin distancias, ni fronteras
Que pongas alta la mano.
Sin distancias, ni fronteras,
Esta tierra es la que espera
Que el clamor americano
Le baje pronto la mano
Al señor de las cadenas.
Métale a la marcha,
Métale al tambor,
Métale que traigo
Un pueblo en mi voz.
Hermano dame tu sangre,
Dame tu frío y tu pan
Dame tu mano hecha puño
Que no necesito más.
Esta es la hora primera,
Este es el justo lugar
Con tu mano y mi mano
Hermano empecemos ya.
Mira adelante hermano
En esta hora primera
Y apretar bien tu bandera
Cerrando fuerte la mano
Que apretada a tu bandera
En esta hora primera
Con el puño americano
Le marque el rostro al tirano
Y el dolor se quede afuera.
Lyrics translation
Brother give me your hand,
Let's get together
A small house
It's called freedom.
This is the first hour,
This is the right place
Open the door outside
The earth can't take it anymore.
Look ahead brother
It is your land that awaits
No distances, no borders
Put your hand up.
No distances, no borders,
This land is what awaits
That the American clamor
Put your hand down soon
The Lord of chains.
Get him on the move.,
Hit the drum.,
Metal that I bring
A people in my voice.
Brother give me your blood,
Give me your cold and your bread
Give me your hand made fist
That I don't need any more.
This is the first hour,
This is the right place
With your hand and my hand
Brother, let's start now.
Look ahead brother
In this first hour
And tighten your flag well
Clasping his hand tightly
That tight to your flag
In this first hour
With the American fist
Mark the tyrant's face
And the pain stays out.
