Me mandaron una carta
Por el correo temprano,
En esa carta me dicen
Que cayó preso mi hermano,
Y sin compasión, con grillos,
Por la calle lo arrastraron, sí.

La carta dice el motivo
De haber prendido a roberto
Haber apoyado el paro
Que ya se había resuelto.
Si acaso esto es un motivo
Presa voy también, sargento, si.

Yo que me encuentro tan lejos
Esperando una noticia,
Me viene a decir la carta
Que en mi patria no hay justicia,
Los hambrientos piden pan,
Plomo les da la milicia, sí.

De esta manera pomposa
Quieren conservar su asiento
Los de abanico y de frac,
Sin tener merecimiento,
Van y vienen de la iglesia
Y olvidan los mandamientos, sí.

Habrase visto insolencia,
Barbarie y alevosía,
De presentar el trabuco
Y matar a sangre fría
A quien defensa no tiene
Con las dos manos vacías, si.

La carta que he recibido
Me pide contestación,
Yo pido que se propale
Por toda la población,
Que el «león» es un sanguinario
En toda generación, sí.

Por suerte tengo guitarra
Para llorar mi dolor,
También tengo nueve hermanos
Fuera del que se engrilló,
Los nueve son comunistas
Con el favor de mi dios, sí.
