My brother, my dear brother, good Morning! The dawn show in your face and shine in your life! His days are rich of joy. My love and baby Brother, We are alive! I have to tell you: we are alive! You are not alone! You're in my heart and in my soul. You're Inside of me and in the reflection of water. You are a part of me and I'm part from you! We are one among all others. We do not we are alone. That day witness our birth! The dawn realizes our existence! The fields receive our steps! The world to accept our presence! My brother, my dear and beloved brother, there are times I try to tell you One thing: I am here! Listen to me: I am here! You are not alone! I need hopelessly from you. I need hopelessly know you. I need hopelessly being with you! My brother, my dear and beloved brother, My tent It's open To you If you want hide yourself this cold night. My tent it’s open to you if you want trick the fury of the wolves. My heart it’s on to your heart. My blood is red just like yours. Nor time cannot erase it. Neither life can erase that. My brother, who will be you in this crowd? Embrace the truth or will be Illusion? My brother, my dear and beloved brother, realizes the darkness to come? Realizes the evil now it is growing? Hear the sound thunder far! Hear the sound saxophones far! Listening the beating of wings Grasshoppers! Listen to the shouts of the angry mob! The crowd chasing the insistent hunger for blood between his teeth. Everybody wants a piece of us. Everyone wants a pound of our flesh. They come during at night. They come during the day. They never sleep. They never give up. I see only hate in your eyes. I see only rebellion in your eyes. They are born the murmurings and strife. They are the result of anger and hypocrisy. They venerate marble idols. Idols of gold, silver and bronze. They cry out a piece of our land. They require even the sweat of our foreheads. No food in this land to sustain for your hunger it is rampant. There blanket in this land that heat for your heart it is the winter cold more extreme. There is no justice in this land satisfying for expect the greater evil always prevail. There is no reason for none of this happen and yet all it happens! Who put our brothers against us? Who he puts us against our own brothers? Who on this earth, really, It's us? Who on this earth, Really, are they? Who knows which side is the mirror? All this hatred not born alone in the dunes. All this anger it does not grow alone in the sand. So who hate us so much dearly beloved brother? Who, long ago has played in against each other? My brother, my dear and beloved brother, someone, some time ago, steals all our cattle. Someone, long ago defiles all our water. Someone, some time ago assaults our dreams. Someone, some time ago Burn all that's left us. However, those who hate us such a long time beloved brother? The guilt all this It is not yours. The guilt all this It is not mine. So who will In fact, all the blame? Who will be, after all, our single accuser? Who is coming to steal all our breath? Who is coming to destroy our hopes? Who was born a feud? Who was born a simple lie? Who crawls among the lizards desert? Who conversation with the stars Infinity? Who plot against their own brothers? Who blasphemes in the heavens and the creator himself? Who will be our biggest Killer? Who will be our biggest opponent? Who will be our brother unknown? Who will go breaking the silence in this order so violent? My brother, I beg you to save me these dirty streets. I beg you to hold me tonight so cold and so dark. I beg you to grant me a simple prayer in this momentary silence. Someone plot constantly against us. Someone Want to see our end. My brother, dearly beloved brother, Hug me when the wind It is too cold. Hug me when you hear my sigh of pain. My hands tremble cold and fear. My bones tremble cold and fear. My brother, where will you be Now? You will be inside cars passing fast. You will be in shop windows of expensive clothes shops. You will be the billboards neon in downtown. You will be in advertisements famous brand. Where you will, my beloved brother? The sound thunder gets closer! Almost explode my heart! My bones tremble cold and fear. I hope for something not owes me explanation. I hope for something I do not understand. I hope for something it is a revelation. May arise among cacti. Surely, grow among the burned grass. Maybe it’s only a dream. Perhaps more a desire hidden. My brother, in this special day, who will you be today. In this special day, where is you today? It will be you, my brother, my only friend. It will be you, my brother, my greatest enemy? Will you brother, beside me in this cold night? Will you Brother, with in the angry mob? My brother, my dear and beloved brother, It will be you That Sleeping out in the open? It will be you that one that Fight against the cold? It will be you that you face the wolves. It will be you that that protects your? Who will be You my dear and beloved brother? My brother, I implore receiving me. My brother, I beg to listen to me. My dear and beloved brother, accept me!

The sound of thunder It's deafening and if ever closer. The hunger of wolves ceases neither with the dawn. I see whole cities ablaze on fire. I see the darkness blacker take shape quickly. I see food to perdition satisfied a flock of sheep. I see the flock embrace the night and join in the pack. I see wolves and sheep fraternizing. I see them embrace the full evil in a night deal. Before my eyes finally I see the end unfolding. I hear the sound of thunder finally in its fullness. There is no more sell some in my eyes. I see millions issuing his last breath before my eyes. My brother, my dear and beloved Brother, how can I say how much I love you? How can I say how much you’ll be missed? How can I say how much I loved you in life? How do I look in your eyes knowing that never see you? Who put this blood in my hands? Who put this weapon in my hands? My dear and loved brother, at where will be you? Will be you in the cotton fields? Will be you coal mines? Will be you in the bar tables? Will be you in lullabies? Will be you the stone dungeons? Will be you the yellow pages? Will be you in the desert mountains? Will be you in concrete forests? Will be you in love letters? Will be you in horror stories? Will be you among the persecuted or is In between Persecutors? Will you In between The empty belly or are In between who has everything? Will you In between the most popular or is In between Disposable? Will you In between settlers or is In between Colonized? My brother, my dear And beloved brother, will you In between Elected? Will you In between The unfortunates? Embrace my problems, embrace my fights, embrace my tears, embrace my hiccups, embrace my scars, I pray that the Lord in receive open arms. May the Lord the accepted at the end. The King of kings in receives in his Kingdom. I can hold you finally without fear. I can love you finally without fear. May we we to recognize simply as... Brothers!
