My Country
Оглавлениеmy country where do you
exist from sea to sea, how
long will it be until liberty
like the air breathed is for
everyone, when will your
national borders reflect the
memory of Brown blood
spilled, how long before your
compass lets you march to
our Spanish graves, where
people who sacrificed life for
you are permanently at rest?
my country will you ever hear
these sweet voices calling, say
loud our names, and write history
in your Spanish tongue? my country,
how long do you think it possible
to wander with closed eyes, deny
the history in your face, and cover
white hearts with hate and neatly
piled high lies? sweet land of liberty
confess freedom too rings for dark
Americans like me!
