Foi no sábado passado
muitos compagni vieram
à manife que fizeram
no lugar mais afamado
ali todos juntos eram
muitos mil do nosso lado
Aos gritos de Franco boia
(Franco, Soares, Pinochet)
já Roma lembrava Tróia
na garrota tutti tre
vinguemos os cinco mortos
morte ao fascismo: vencer!
Dia internacionalista
não faltava o militar
apoiando os companheiros
portugueses e a cantar:
"Viva Portogallo Rosso"
"Criar Poder Popular"
Quisera lembrar agora
naquela semana finda
esquerda rivolucionária
Vanguarda e Lotta Cantinua
toda a força a classe operária
ouve-se em Lisboa ainda
Franco boia Franco boia
todo o crime tem um preço
o teu regime corrupto
pôs todo a mundo do avesso
hoje Espanha está de luto
mas inda agora é o começo
