Song information On this page you can read the lyrics of the song La Carta , by - Mercedes Sosa. La Carta(original) |
| 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 |
