Plegaria a un labrador [English translation]
Plegaria a un labrador [English translation]
Rise up and look at the mountain
from whence come wind, sun, and water.
You who drives the course of the river,
you who planted the flight of your soul.
Rise up and look at your hands,
to grow, hold it out to your brother.
Together we will go united in blood,
today is the time that can be tomorrow.
Free us from the one who rules us
in poverty.
Bring us your kingdom of justice
and equality.
Blow, like wind,
the flower of the ravine.
Clean, like fire,
the cannon of my rifle.
Your will be done, finally,
here on earth.
Give us your strength and your courage
to fight.
Blow, like wind,
the flower of the ravine.
Clean, like fire,
the cannon of my rifle.
Rise up and look at your hands,
to grow, hold it out to your brother.
Together we will go united in blood,
now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.
