Me Gustan Los Estudiantes

Long live the students
Garden of our joy
They are birds that are not scared
Of animals or police
And they are not afraid of bullets
Or the barking of the pack
Wow and zamba the thing
Long live astronomy!

I like the students
Who roar like the winds
When they are whispered
Soutanes and regiments
Libertarian little birds
Just like the elements
Wow and zamba the thing
Long live the experiment

I like the students
Because they stand tall
When they are told it's flour
Knowing it's bran
And they don't play deaf and dumb
When the fact is presented
Wow and zamba the thing
The code of law!

I like the students
Because they are the yeast
Of the bread that will come out of the oven
With all its flavor
For the mouth of the poor
Who eats with bitterness
Wow and zamba the thing
Long live literature!

I like the students
Who march over the ruins
With the flags held high
For all the student body
They are chemists and doctors
Surgeons and dentists
Wow and zamba the thing
Long live the specialists!

I like the students
Who with very clear eloquence
To the sacred black bag
Lowered the indulgences
Because, how long will it last
Gentlemen, the penance
Wow and zamba the thing
Long live all science!
Wow and zamba the thing
Long live all science!
