| Me mandaron una carta | 
| Por el correo temprano | 
| En esa carta me dicen | 
| Que cayó preso mi hermano | 
| Y sin compasión con grillos | 
| Por las calles lo arrastraron | 
| Sí… | 
| La carta dice el motivo | 
| Que ha cometido Roberto | 
| Haber apoyado el paro | 
| Que ya se había resuelto | 
| Si acaso esto es un motivo | 
| Preso voy también sargento | 
| Sí… | 
| Yo que me encuentro tan lejos | 
| Esperando una noticia | 
| Me viene a decir en la carta | 
| Que en mi patria no hay justicia | 
| Los hambrientos piden pan | 
| Los molesta la milicia | 
| Sí… | 
| Habrase visto insolencia | 
| Barbarie y alevosía | 
| De presentar el trabuco | 
| Y matar a sangre fría | 
| Hay quien defensa no tiene | 
| Con las dos manos vacías | 
| Sí… | 
| La carta que me mandaron | 
| Me pide contestación | 
| Yo pido que se propale | 
| Por toda la población | 
| Que el león es un sanguinario | 
| En toda generación | 
| Sí… | 
| Por suerte tengo guitarra | 
| Y también tengo mi voz | 
| También tengo siete hermanos | 
| Fuera del que se engrilló | 
| Todos revolucionarios | 
| Con el favor de mi Dios | 
| Sí… Sí | 
| (translation) | 
| they sent me a letter | 
| by early mail | 
| In that letter they tell me | 
| That my brother fell prisoner | 
| And mercilessly with crickets | 
| Through the streets they dragged him | 
| Yes… | 
| The letter says the reason | 
| What has Robert done? | 
| Having supported the strike | 
| That had already been resolved | 
| If this is a reason | 
| I'm going to prison too sergeant | 
| Yes… | 
| I am so far away | 
| waiting for a news | 
| He comes to tell me in the letter | 
| That in my country there is no justice | 
| The hungry ask for bread | 
| They are bothered by the militia | 
| Yes… | 
| You would have seen insolence | 
| Barbarism and treachery | 
| To present the blunderbuss | 
| And kill in cold blood | 
| There are those who do not have a defense | 
| With both empty hands | 
| Yes… | 
| The letter they sent me | 
| ask me for a reply | 
| I ask that it spread | 
| for the entire population | 
| That the lion is a bloodthirsty | 
| in every generation | 
| Yes… | 
| Luckily I have a guitar | 
| And I also have my voice | 
| I also have seven brothers | 
| Out of which he shackled | 
| all revolutionaries | 
| With the favor of my God | 
| Yes Yes |
