OUTRO

Corrido a Ricardo Flores Magon by Ignacio Cardenas

ENGLISH TRANSLATION:

Proletarian, go to the fight not to elevate anyone Proletarian, go to the fight to elevate your class Proletarian, go to the fight to elevate your class. These words were spoken by a noble revolutionary Flores Magón by surname and his first name is Ricardo Flores Magón by surname and his first name is Ricardo. I have made the revolution alongside other Mexicans And words he spoke I will sing As a sincere tribute To Ricardo Flores Magón. They want to subdue us with knives and bullets It is foolish to respond with the code in hand Let us subdue them too with knives and bullets. Mexicans to war Our hair held high For our rifles, impatient, lie hidden To shine proudly under the sun of battle. Because he never wavered, his libertarian ideals remained unchanged. Despite imprisonment, torture, and the passing years, the Yankees cowardly murdered him without mercy. I have died an anarchist, with his head held high, always faithful to his ideals and fighting passionately. In prison, he wrote as his epitaph: Here lies a dreamer, or a madman when he dies. Some may say so, but no one will dare to say, "Here lies a coward, and a traitor to his ideals."
