Walk,
     my sister,
lift up your head
     and look at the horizon.
spring is here
even though the sun
     has not come out.

Our powerless
     tears
     will fertilize the hope,
break now your silence
and strengthen your trust.

One to one
     one with one
          and another one,
keep always in mind
that we will always be more.

Together our hands
     will produce heat
and light the flame
of our burning uproar.

Walk,
     my sister,
don't keep me waiting
because in the middle of our journey
     we will all be able to shout:
Don't be afraid,
     dawn is drawing near.

Walk, my sister,
     and do not forget to take with you
the seeds that one day
many others will sow
to create with happiness
     a new humanity.
