WORKERS ‘HYMN

                                 Chorus:

Masses of women, and men without land
Of workers and exploited
They rise very united now in a hard war
Because only the people always save the people

I

Workers in action united
We have made a serious commitment to
Free a people that struggles oppressed
To forge the homeland and a free nation

II  

We workers always reject
imperialism in all its forms
And the war that we have declared on
dependency and colonialism is tough .

Chorus

III

A great homeland of workers
That is a guarantee for the development
Of a free nation, of a new nation
It is the great Latin American homeland

IVOnly the unity of workers
Gives freedom and the new society
The revolution against exploiters
Without capitalism everything is equality.ChorusVWithout the workers’ movement
The struggle is waste, there is no revolution
The rest are achievements of the bourgeoisie
Change of employer is not liberation …..SAWIn mines and factories and in plantations
Marginalized neighborhoods and in the four pointsIn all worker centers
the force that builds a world is forged.(Author: victor vaena lopez
