The toucan leaves the river land, flies south to the coffee plantations
He sees from the sky the scene is changing, water gives way to thirsty fields
Although he neither can count nor interpret, he notices all the peasants
Working the fields like in the Dark Ages but there stands a white knight on the hill, he
Smiles and eats and orders around the people to build a wall for his
Pools, fountains, statues of him – self and the armory in the gazebo
Smiles and eats and orders around the people to build a wall for his
Pools, fountains, statues of him – self and the armory in the gazebo
Hovel and sheds of tin roofs and rubble a landscape red in a sea of dust
The trees were felled long ago, a beautiful grove, was honey for the owner
He owns the police, he owns the arms, twenty years old he orderd Santa Elina, and
The toucan sees from above the enslavement of the people of Rondonia, but
Brick by brick, the people construct a defense of simple log and stone, when
Over dirt roads the forces of the state are advancing
Brick by brick, the people construct a defense of simple log and stone, when
Over dirt roads the forces of the state are advancing
The people learn their history, organizes their defenses thereafter
They must be armed, that’s on them, we only do what is necessary
The rich own the police and army, prepare for a new Santa Elina, but
A people and a militarized party have their own magical weapons
Building and building a conscious force, that must be militarized
Organize the vanguard, the Communist Party of Brazil, *2(Partido Communista do Brasil)
Building and building a conscious force, that must be militarized
Organize the vanguard, the Communist Party of Brazil, *2(Partido Communista do Brasil)
Arming and arming the comrades, the people, building up our own forces
The only army that serves the people -Camaradas – avante!*2
Arming and arming the comrades, the people, building up our own forces
The only army that serves the people -Camaradas – avante!*2
Recruiting, recruiting in the United front of all the classes of the people, become
The stormy seas of armed masses creating the new Brazil
Recruiting, recruiting in the United front of all the classes of the people, become
The stormy seas of armed masses creating the new Brazil
A mar tempestade de massas armadas criando o novo Brasil!
The toucan leaves the coffee plantations, flies north to the river lands
Watching from above the world is changing, the kingdom of chains gives way to stormy seas!
… A guerra popular fará o novo Brasil
