Lyrics
Probe Patria
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Mi pobre patria, aplastada por abusos del poder
de gente infame que no conoce el pudor,
se creen los dueños todopoderosos
y piensan que les pertenece todo
Los gobernantes, cuántos perfectos e inútiles bufones
en esta tierra que el dolor ha devastado
¿Acaso no sentís nada de pena
ante esos cuerpos tendidos sin vida?
No cambiará, no cambiará
no cambiará, quizá cambiará
Y cómo excusarlos, las hienas en estadios y aquéllas
de la prensa chapoteando en el fango como cerdos
Yo me avergüenzo un poco y me hace daño
ver a los hombres como animales
No cambiará, no cambiará
no cambiará, quizá cambiará
Esperamos que el mundo vuelva a cotas más normales,
que pueda contemplar con calma el cielo
que nunca más se hable de dictaduras,
porque quizá tendremos que ir tirando
mientras la primavera tarda aún en llegar.
