Es Una Carta

It's a letter addressed to youEs una carta dirigida para ti
In it, it says you don’t have to sufferEn ella te dice que no tienes porqué sufrir
Take care of Dad, the brothers, and GrandmaCuida de padre, los hermanos y la abuela
Take the wheat to the oven, and there you’ll pay for the breadLleva el trigo al horno y allí pagarás el pan

Receive from me many kisses and hugsRecibid de mí muchos besos y abrazos
Be in life like I’ve taught youSed en la vida como yo os he enseñado
Don’t cry for me because it’s like thisNo lloréis por mí porque esto sea así
I’m leaving peacefully because I haven’t done anything wrongQue yo me voy tranquila porque no he hecho nada malo
Don’t look up at the sky, don’t let them see you cryYa no miras hacia el cielo, que no te vean llorar
You don’t remember her face, you knew they were going to kill her... to kill herYa no recuerdas su cara, sabías que la iban a matar... a matar

She only protested because she didn’t think it was fairElla sólo protestó porque no veía justo
That women had their heads shavedQue a las mujeres les raparan la cabeza
And were paraded through the streets amidst insultsY las pasearan por las calles entre insultos
While the fascists took communion in the churchMientras los fascistas comulgaban en la iglesia
Don’t look up at the sky, don’t let them see you cryYa no miras hacia el cielo, que no te vean llorar
You don’t remember her face, you knew they were going to kill herYa no recuerdas su cara, sabías que la iban a matar
Don’t look up at the sky, don’t let them see you cryYa no miras hacia el cielo, que no te vean llorar
You don’t remember her face, you knew they were going to kill her... to kill herYa no recuerdas su cara, sabías que la iban a matar... a matar
