Cabalgando Con Fidel

Riding With Fidel

Cabalgando Con Fidel

They say that in the square these daysDicen que en la plaza en estos días
They have been seen riding Camilo and MartíSe les ha visto cabalgar a camilo y a martí
And in front of the caravan, slowly without a riderY delante de la caravana, lentamente sin jinete
A horse for youUn caballo para ti

The wounds that do not heal returnVuelven las heridas que no sanan
Of the men and womenDe los hombres y mujeres
We will not let you goQue no te dejaremos ir

Today our hearts beat outsideHoy el corazón nos late afuera
And your people, even though it hurtsY tu pueblo aunque le duela
Don't want to say goodbye to youNo te quiere despedir

Man, the grateful accompany youHombre, los agradecidos te acompañan
How we will long for your featsCómo anhelaremos tus hazañas
Not even death believes it took hold of youNi la muerte cree que se apoderó de ti

Man, we learned to feel you eternalHombre, aprendimos a saberte eterno
Just like Olofi, Jesus ChristAsí como olofi, jesucristo
There is not a single altar without a light for youNo hay un solo altar sin una luz por ti

Today I don't want to call you commanderHoy no quiero decirte comandante
Nor bearded one, nor giantNi barbudo, ni gigante
All I know about youTodo lo que sé de ti

Today I want to shout, my fatherHoy quiero gritarte, padre mío
Don't let go of my handNo te sueltes de mi mano
I still don't know how to walk well without youAún no sé andar bien sin ti

They say that in the square this morningDicen que en la plaza esta mañana
No more horses can fit arrivingYa no caben más corceles llegando
From another cornerDe otro confín

A desperate crowdUna multitud desesperada
Of heroes with winged backsDe héroes de espaldas aladas
Who have gathered hereQue se han dado cita aquí
And in front of the caravanY delante de la caravana
Slowly without a riderLentamente sin jinete
A horse for youUn caballo para ti
