Canción de la Esperanza

Song of Hope

Canción de la Esperanza

Imagining a dignified death in you and you splattered the wallTanto imaginarnos una muerte digna en ti y tu salpicabas la pared
We were an ear, a heartbeat, a heart and while you splattered the wallFuimos una oreja un latido un corazón y mientras salpicabas la pared
We waited with fear for the break, you know whyEsperamos con miedo la ruptura tu bien sabes el porque
So many people didn't sleep in their homes, you know whyTanta gente no dormía en su casa tu bien sabes el porque

We always suspected that life wasn't yours, you, the old ghostly storySiempre sospechamos que la vida no era tu, tu la vieja historia fantasmal
You were the habit, the gun, and the altar, a broken mirror in the atticEras la costumbre, la pistola y el altar, un espejo roto en el desván
The impossible and unfortunate nightmare, the glass bellLa imposible y desgraciada pesadilla la campana de cristal
One day they will tell us that you didn't exist, just a dream in realityAlgún día nos dirán que no exististe mas que un sueño en realidad
Let hope not cease, cornered with a vote we hardly changed anythingQue no cese la esperanza acorralada con voto no cambiamos casi nada
Let hope not cease, cornered hope, the dog died but the rage didn't go awayQue no cese la esperanza acorralada muerto el perro no se fue con en la rabia

It was almost easy to rebel against you in a union, on paperEra casi fácil revelarnos contra ti en un sindicato, en un papel
All politics were against you, you were the summary to defeatToda la política se hacia contra ti eras el resumen a vencer
Now everything is even more complex, the hard part is to growAhora todo es mas complejo todavía lo difícil es crecer
And accept that others decide on your behalf with the vote you give themY aceptar que otros decidan por tu cuenta con el voto que les des

I had always dreamed that it would be over once, I had never dreamed of a kingSiempre había soñado que se seria de una vez nunca había soñado con un rey
This chess game is very unequal, they have the vote and the powerEs muy desigual esta partida de ajedrez ellos tienen el voto y el poder
Let's continue the fight, always alive, in the office, in a workshopProsigamos con la lucha siempre viva en la oficina en un taller
History pushes us, cursing, at a table, in a caféLa historia nos empuja maldiciendo en una mesa en un café.

Let hope not cease...Que no cese la esperanza ...
