Si el hondo mar callaba sus dolores If the deep sea silenced her pain
las esperanzas levantó la tierra hopes raised the earth
éstas desembarcaron en la costa they landed on the coast
eran brazos y puños de pelea. they were fighting arms and fists.
Fidel Castro con quince de los suyos Fidel Castro with fifteen of his own
y con la libertad bajó a la arena and with freedom he went down to the sand
bajó a la arena, he went down to the sand,

La isla estaba oscura como el luto The island was dark as mourning

Las madres despidieron a sus hijos Mothers fired their children
el campesino relató su pena the peasant recounted his sorrow
y el ejército libre de los pobres and the free army of the poor
creció y creció como la luna llena. it grew and grew like the full moon.
Mientras que el movimiento de los libres While the movement of the free

sacudía los surcos de la isla shook the furrows of the island
surgía sobre el mar como un planeta. it rose above the sea like a planet.
