Qué Lindo És Ser Voluntario

No me vengas con la historia de la indolencia,
hace rato que te aguaito dándote vueltas.
Moscardón que pica y pica sin consecuencia,
se le acaban el zumbido y la lanceta.
Si la montaña no viene anda hacia ella,
las metas de Recabarren son las estrellas.
Qué cosa más linda es ser voluntario,
construyendo parques para el vecindario,
levantando puentes, casas y caminos,
siguiendo adelante con nuestro destino ¡sí!
Dale pala, campesino, dale al arado,
ahora son tiempos mejores pa' tus sembrados.
Dale martillo a la mina, dale minero,
dale más techo a las casas de los obreros.
Compañera, usted que endulza toda la tierra,
a los especuladores no les des tregua.
El rico se juega entero por su defensa,
confunde la democracia con la insolencia.
Para hablar de socialismo estudia a Lenin,
la revolución no es juego para burgueses.
Si la montaña no viene anda hacia ella,
las metas de Recabarren son las estrellas.
