Si Un Hijo Quieren de Mí
Mercedes Sosa
If They Want a Child from Me
If you want to see the light I carry inside
Make a song of love and I'll start the fire
If you want the voice that I hold within
You deny the cry for peace that’s in the people
For this blood, I come to fight
This is my life, it always will be
For this fury, they call me a queer
For my tenderness, just a little more
If they want a child from me for the flames
I’m going to give birth to a daughter, that’s what I want
If they want a child from me to kill
I’d rather say a loud and sacred no
