The Immigrant
This is the life of the immigrant
tthe wanderer of the wandering dream.
Take your life in your handkerchief
to move forward with your poverty.
If you find a destination
tif you find the way
tyou will have to go to that place
tthe dust of the road
covers your friendly face
twith your misery to that place.
A god cursed the life of the immigrant
tyou will be poorly seen by people everywhere
tyou will be hated by racist thugs.
and justice mistreats you without mercy.
All brothers. All charlatans
tell lies with truths
tyou look for work and you are hungry
tbut there is no place for the immigrant.

The land of the West, no longer has shame,
devastates our land, steals our wealth
tHow well one eats at a restaurant!
How much misery for the immigrant!

How much misery for the immigrant!
Our children are dying.
Empty stomach. You see it on TV
tafter having eaten.

We are different, we are the same.
But on the street, no one knows.
Bread for all. We are hungry.
But the rich do not share.
We are different
we are the same
