Hay Que Aligerar La Carga
Ali Primera
We Must Lighten the Load
Look for the worker in the factory
shake hands with the worker
tell him the struggle is long
that we must lighten the load
to clear the path
of the world he dreamed of
Tell him that what he produces
feeds the exploiter
(Say that to get rid of the gringo
who bothers my people
we'll have to fight) (Repeat)
Look for the parish priest
don't look for the Cardinal
tell him the struggle is long
that we must lighten the load
that the Sunday mass
with a free people, is better
Tell him that in the sacristy
we will hold the meeting
(tell him God is not angry
that he is happy
with the revolution) (Repeat)
Show me the way,
show me the way then.
Show me the way,
show me the way then.
(I know there is an enemy
it's imperialism
and I will defeat it) (Repeat)
That, with the fight alone
misery will go away
with the fight alone
the Yankee will go away
with the fight alone
the Yankee will go away
with the fight alone
misery will go away
la lara lá, lara lá
the Yankee will go away
la lará lá, lara lá
with the fight alone
...

Show me the way,
show me the way then.
Show me the way,
show me the way then.
(I know there is an enemy
it's imperialism
and I will defeat it) (Repeat)
That, with the fight alone
misery will go away
with the fight alone
the Yankee will go away
with the fight alone
the Yankee will go away
with the fight alone
misery will go away
la lara lá, lara lá
the Yankee will go away
la lará lá, lara lá
with the fight alone.
Look for the worker in the factory
look for the one who works the land
look and explain to the mother
look for the blind man on the street
tell him the struggle is long
that we must lighten the looooad.
