Pablo Neruda -Yo no quiero la Patria dividida-

Yo no quiero la Patria dividida

Yo no quiero la Patria dividida
ni por siete cuchillos desangrada,
quiero la luz de Chile enarbolada
sobre la nueva casa construida,
cabemos todos en la tierra mia.

y que los que se creen prisioneros
se vayan lejos con su melodia.
Siempre los ricos fueron extranjeros
que se vayan a Miami con sus tias,

Yo no quiero la Patria dividida
se vayan lejos con su melodia.

Yo no quiero la Patria dividida.
There is enough space here for all of us.
yo me quedo a cantar con los obreros
en esta nueva historia y geografia.


I don’t want my Country to be divided

I don’t want my Country divided
nor bleeding from seven knife wounds.
I want the light to be hoisted
over new homes.
We all can fit in this land of mine.

And those that don’t feel that they fit here
can just take their songs and go far away:
the rich ones always acted differently from us,
so let them go live with their relatives in Miami.

I don’t want my Country divided.
Let them take their songs and go far away.

I don’t want my Country divided.
There is enough space here for all of us.
And I will remain to sing with the workers
songs of our history and our land.
