Por Nacer

Yet to be born

Por Nacer

Yet to be born, on this ground.Por nacer, en este suelo.
I made a pact with GodHice un pacto yo con Dios
or maybe it was with the devil,o tal vez fue con el diablo,
I don't know.no lo sé.
I just remember the decisive command,Sólo recuerdo el mandato decidor,
to not silence what was silenced so much.de no callar lo que tanto se calló.

Then, it seems not to matter.Después, parece no importarle.
To whom, it seems not to feelA quién, parece no sentir
Maybe because by hoarding bread.Tal vez, porque guardando el pan.
One believes to be the owner of good living.Se cree dueño del buen vivir.

Poor him.Pobre de él.
The lackey listener of the boss.El orejero cipayo del patrón.
Of whom decree or blow commandsDe quien decreto o palazo manda
be law.sean ley.
To keep safe the loot,Por mantener a resguardo el botín,
of those who kill with hungerde los que matan con hambre
the nation.a la nación.

Where I, dreaming, am dying.Donde yo, soñando estoy morir.
Like someone dreaming is growing.Como quién soñando está crecer

Then, it seems not to matter.Después, parece no importarle.
To whom, it seems not to feel.A quien, parece no sentir.
Maybe, he prefers to forget,Tal vez, prefiere olvidar,
for the sake of his own existence.por bien de su propio existir.
