Tabaré Etcheverry - Paysandú dalszöveg fordítás angol nyelvre

Paysandú

recited:
When peace was signed
the historians say
that it was done without defeated
and without winners.
But there was indeed a defeated
even if was only the homeland
and a disease for everybody
that for being common, it's no longer that.
Because for obtaining the favours
the commendable mercenaries
gifted Brazil
half of the territory!
But we couldn't assure
to have them as friends,
soon they would need
to be helped again.
And so in 1863,
back to the old ways
under the double blasphemy
of invoking God and homeland.
 
sung:
They surrounded our plaza,
they're bombarding us,
the brazilians that
Venancio brought have came.
They went up the river
the boats to shoot the cannons
and by land we're surrounded
by colorados and brazilians.
 
The general stands his ground
and with him, all the gauchos
we lack everything
except bravery
we'll throw the weight around
while we have breath.
They were going to sweat for a while
before putting us to the sword
 
Days were passing
houses were falling
and that thunder of cannons
and that rain of bullets
And the people don't sleep
and the ammo runs out
and the death yet to come
and the life, and the life not passing.
 
Paysandu has surrendered
there's not an entire wall
Paysandu has surrendered
and brazilians came in,
the bodies can't endure
with the weight of the souls
and the bravery shakes
by seeing the white flag.
 
The General surrendered
to save the whole population
the General surrendered
but not to the brazilians
because true to his feelings
firm with his ideals
he will trust in his brothers
he surrendered to the easterns.
 
And the platoon is forming
and the drums roll
and the fusils aim,
aim at Leandro Gomez
and the discharge bounces
and a homeland piece dies
and the blood spills
and is of the color, of the color of infamy.
 
recited:
That's how Leandro Gomez fell
like the brave Lucas Piriz,
Azambuya, Emilio Raña
and the Captain Benavides.
The deads of Paysandú
keep the flame alive
of those who pretend
a sovereign homeland.
Independence or death!
That way that brave man swelled
the list of the dead for freedom
Damned traitors! Damned their memory!
Damned the blasphemous of history!
May a lightning strike you all!
Damned the sellouts to the empire!
