Yo te nombro, Libertad [English translation]

For the caged bird

For the fish in the fishbowl

For my friend who is imprisoned

For having said what he thinks

For the plucked flowers

For the trampled grass

For the fallen trees

For the tortured bodies

I name you Freedom

For our clenched teeth

For our suppressed rage

For the lump in our throat

For the mouths that don’t sing

For the clandestine kiss

For the censored verse

For the young exile

For the forbidden names

I name you Freedom

I name you on behalf of us all

with your true name

I name you when it becomes dark,

when nobody sees me

I write your name

on the walls of my city

I write your name

on the walls of my city

Your real name

Yours and others’ names

which are not named out of fear

For the persecuted idea

For the blows received

For he that doesn’t resist

For those that have hidden

For the fear that they have of you

For your steps that they watch

For the way that they attack you

For the children that kill you

I name you Freedom

For invaded lands

For conquered peoples

For those who are oppressed

For exploited men

For those burned at the stake

For the valiant who were executed

For the assassinated hero

For extinguished fires

I name you Freedom
