Ezln...Para Todas Todo...

EZLN...For Everyone Everything...
The commander-in-chief of the Southern Liberation Army Emiliano Zapata Zapatista Manifesto in Nagua-
To the people of Mexico:
To the peoples and governments of the world:
Brothers:
Brothers we were born in the night
we live in it
and we will die in it
but the light will be tomorrow for the most,
for all those who cry tonight,
for those who are denied the day.
For everyone the light,
for everyone everything.
Our struggle is to make ourselves heard and the bad government
shouts arrogance and covers its ears with cannons,
our struggle is for fair and dignified work and the bad government buys and sells bodies and shame,
our struggle is for life and the bad government offers death as a future,
our struggle is for justice and the bad government is filled with criminals and murderers,
our struggle is for peace and the bad government announces war and destruction.
Shelter, land, work, bread, health, education, independence, democracy, freedom,
these were our demands in the long night of the 500 years,
these are our demands today.
