Una Palabra Solamente
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.
Una palabra solamente, cubano,
Déjame que interrumpa tu trabajo.
Yo sé que tu machete está muy alto,
Más allá del futuro de tus manos,
Más allá que las puertas del destino,
Más allá que el odio del tirano
Y tan cerca del amor, cubano,
Tan cerca del amor americano.
Así como él vivió, nosotros vivimos,
Con la piel cargada de heroísmo.
De la sierra partió,
Por tus calles pasó,
Y en cada árbol,
En cada cumbre,
En cada pájaro
Vivirá siempre
El Comandante Guevara.
Una palabra solamente, cubano,
Déjame que interrumpa tu trabajo.
Yo sé que tu machete está muy alto,
Más allá que el futuro de tus manos.
Una palabra solamente: Hermano.
