Plegaria a un labrador

OUR WORKER Our labourer who art beneath the dark sky Thine is the toil, the peril and despair You who can tame the forces of the river You who can shape tomorrow with your hands Our labourer who art among your brothers Thine is the day, the power and the soil Glory be sown, and harrowed be the acres Reach out your hand to see a new day grow Lead us not to misery, deliver us from domination Kingdom of fairness and justice for all, kingdom come Blow like the wind through the blossoming quebradas Scour like the fire from the mouth of my gun Finally, your will be done in factories and farmyards Give us this day the strength and the courage to fight And blow like the wind through the blossoming quebradas Scour like the fire from the mouth of my gun Our labourer of quarries, quays and chimneys Reach out your hand and see a new day grow We’ll go together, this is the blood that binds us for ever and ever till death do us apart Amen! | Stand up and see the power of the mountain Source of the sun, of water and the wild wind You who can harness the rush of mighty rivers You who can gather the harvest of your soul. Stand up and see the hands with which you labor Reach out to hold your brother's hand in your hand Growing together by ties of earth united Knowing together the future can be now. Yea, deliver us, deliver us from those who command us Teach us the strength to take our share of the sun Blow like the high wind thru wild mountain flowers Cleansing like flame the barrel of my gun. Give us this day a world where no man is master Our kingdom come on earth, let our will be done Blow like the high wind thru wild mountain flowers Cleansing like flame the barrel of my gun. Stand up and see the power of the mountain Reach out to hold your sister's hand in your hand Growing together by ties of earth united Now and in the hour of death, amen! |
