Vengo cantando esta zamba
Con redoble libertario
Mataron al guerrillero
Che comandante Guevara
Selvas, pampas y montañas
Patria o muerte su destino
Que los derechos humanos
Los violan en tantas partes
En América Latina
Domingo, lunes y martes
Nos imponen militares
Para sojuzgar los pueblos
Dictadores, asesinos
Gorilas y generales
Explotan al campesino
Al minero y al obrero
Cuanto dolor su destino
Hambre miseria y dolor
Bolívar le dio el camino
Y Guevara lo siguió
Liberar a nuestro pueblo
Del dominio explotador
A Cuba le dio la gloria
De la nación liberada
Bolivia también le llora
Su vida sacrificada
San Ernesto de La Higuera
Le llaman los campesinos
Selvas, pampas y montañas
Patria o muerte su destino
