La Parranda Magna
October 2nd
In the year of 1968
A crowd of young folks
Had their eyes opened
And bravely took up
The weapons of thought
And words
Tragically they were deceived
Cornered and murdered
And a sea of blood soaked
The north of the city
And the cries of the mothers
Of the disappeared
Resonated in the bitter echo
Of the people's uprising
But we still trust
That the fighting storm
Won't escape
And the body, the blood
The breath and the spirit
Of the fallen
Will remain present
Because October 2nd
Is not forgotten
One, two, three, and four
I don’t want to see on the news
To know that on the front pages
Maybe I’ll tell you
And you don’t care, no!
Hundreds of them take to the streets
For October 2nd, for the massacre
Disappeared who never returned
To see the light
Maybe there was a cause
Maybe they insisted on something that pissed off
And as always, it would cover
I’d rather die

October 2nd

I’m not from here
If I get in here
I worry if you know
I’d like to go out
Even though being with you
Worries me
When will this system end
Of things that are
So sick
Humanity is to blame
For its own evil
You won’t give up
Will you do the same?
Where will you be?
That’s the question
I ask God
To watch over your soul
And your heart
