Don't think I don't knowNo creas que ignoro
what you've been throughlo que tú has sufrido
since that momentdesde aquel instante
when they told you,en que te dijeron,
your eyes trembling,temblando los ojos,
that your partnerque a tu compañero
was taken awaypor aquellas calles
through those streets,ya se lo llevaron,
he's in prison.está prisionero.

I don't know what it feels likeNo sé qué se siente
with this punishment,con este castigo,
when your man,cuando al hombre tuyo,
the one you love,ese que tú quieres,
father of your kids,padre de tus hijos,
your shared love,amor compartido,
is taken far away,se lo llevan lejos,
hands tied,atadas las manos,
sense lost.perdido el sentido.

I ask you, don't cry,Te pido, no llores,
because the enemyporque el enemigo
laughs at tearsse ríe del llanto
when it's their crime;cuando es su delito;
from here, far away,de aquí desde lejos
your pain reaches me,me llega tu pena,
a terrible messageterrible mensaje
that the wind brings meque me trae el viento
from the saltpeter mines.de las salitreras.
