The People United Will Never Be Defeated


Stand up and sing for victory will come
The banners of union assemble in the sun
And you'll be there beside me on the march
Then you'll see the banners and the singing
Bursting forth, the dawn whose coming we proclaim
Red as blood, its' rays set us aflame
Stand up and fight, our hearts are all aflame
A new life is coming to put the past to shame
Your happiness is part of this our fight
A thousand cries will rise into a clamour that will
Proudly sing and we cannot be wrong
Freedom is the content of our song

Now is the time for the people to rise up
In struggle and utter their war cry: advance!
El Pueblo Unido Jamás Será Vencido
El Pueblo Unido Jamás Será Vencido

Our country is rising, its unity is strong
From north to south they come to join the throng
From nitrate fields the men are streaming in
Streaming in from the forests in the south, they are
Together now, their struggle has begun
Their union foretells the shape of things to come
Stand up and sing in a million blending parts
The people will win for the truth is in their hearts
Of steel our will, battalions we will build
Justice and reason will be our battle cry
Now look the women too, their hearts are bold and brave
Ranged beside the workers mighty wave

Now is the time for the people to rise up
In struggle and utter their war cry: advance!
El Pueblo Unido Jamás Será Vencido
El Pueblo Unido Jamás Será Vencido

Now is the time for the people to rise up
In struggle and utter their war cry: advance!
El Pueblo Unido Jamás Será Vencido
El Pueblo Unido Jamás Será Vencido

Flags of unity are advancing now
And you will come marching together with me.
In this way you'll see your singing and your flag
unfurl. The light Of a red dawn
Announces the life that will come.

Sand up, struggle, the people will triumph.
It will be better the life that will come
To win our happiness.
And in a clamor of A thousand embittered voices
will rise, they will speak a song of freedom.
With determination the homeland will win.

And now the people rising up in the struggle
With a great voice shout: "Forward!"

A people united will never be defeated.
A people united will never be defeated.

The homeland forging unity
from notth to south will be mobilized
From the fiery salty mine
to the southern forests united in struggle
and work they will go they will cover the country
their step already announces the future.

Stand up, sing, people will triumph
Millions now impose the truth
The fiery army is as steel.
Its hands carry justice and reason
Women, with fire and with courage
already you are here close to the worker.

And now the people rising up in the struggle
With a great voice shout: "Forward!"

A people united will never be defeated.
A people united will never be defeated.
A people united will never be defeated.
A people united will never be defeated.
A people united will never be defeated.
