Текст и перевод песни Quilapayun - Qué dirá el santo padre

Qué dirá el santo padre

Miren cómo nos hablan de libertad
Cuando de ella nos privan en realidad
Miren cómo pregonan tranquilidad
Cuando nos atormenta la autoridad

¿Qué dirá el santo padre
Que vive en Roma
Que le están degollando
A su paloma?

Miren cómo nos hablan del paraíso
Cuando nos llueven penas como granizo
Miren el entusiasmo con la sentencia
Sabiendo que mataban a la inocencia

¿Qué dirá el santo padre
Que vive en Roma
Que le están degollando
A su paloma?

El que ofició la muerte como un verdugo
Tranquilo está tomando su desayuno
Con esto se pusieron la soga al cuello
El quinto mandamiento no tiene sello

¿Qué dirá el santo padre
Que vive en Roma
Que le están degollando
A su paloma?

Mientras más injusticias señor fiscal
Más fuerzas tiene mi alma para cantar
Lindo segar el trigo en el sembrado
Regado con tu sangre Julián Grimau

¿Qué dirá el santo padre
Que vive en Roma
Que le están degollando
A su paloma?

¿Qué dirá el santo padre
Que vive en Roma
Que le están degollando
A su paloma?

What would the Holy Father say

Look how they talk to us of freedom
When they deprive us of it in reality
Look how they preach tranquility
When the authorities torment us

What would the Holy Father say
Who lives in Rome
That they are cutting the throat of
His dove?

Look how they talk to us of paradise
When woes rain down on us like hailstones
Look at the enthusiasm with the sentence
Knowing that they were killing innocence

What would the Holy Father say
Who lives in Rome
That they are cutting the throat of
His dove?

He who officiated the death like an executioner
Is calmly having his breakfast
With this they have put the noose around their necks
The Fifth Commandment has no seal

What would the Holy Father say
Who lives in Rome
That they are cutting the throat of
His dove?

While more injustices my lord prosecutor
My soul has more strength to sing
It's wonderful to reap the wheat in the field
Watered with your blood Julian Grimau

What would the Holy Father say
Who lives in Rome
That they are cutting the throat of
His dove?

What would the Holy Father say
Who lives in Rome
That they are cutting the throat of
His dove?
