Canción Por La Unidad Latinoamericana

The birth of a world was postponed for a moment
A brief lapse of time, a second in the universe
Yet it seemed like everything was going to end
With the deadly distance that separated our lives

They worked to disunite our hands
And despite being brothers, we looked at each other with fear
As the years passed, resentments accumulated
Loves were forgotten, we seemed like strangers

What a suffering distance, what a separated world
I would have never found without contributing new lives
Slave on one side, servile servant on the other
It's the first thing noticed by the last one to break free

Exploiting this mission to see everything so clearly
One day it was liberated by this revolution
This was not a good example for others to liberate
The new task was to isolate, blocking all experience

What shines with its own light cannot be extinguished
Its brightness can reach the darkness of other shores
What will pay for this regret of lost time
Of lives it cost, of those it may cost

It will be paid by the unity of the peoples in question
And those who deny this reason will be condemned by history
History carries its cart and many of us will ride it
It will pass over those who want to deny it

Bolívar launched a star that shone alongside Martí
Fidel dignified it to walk these lands
