Viudas de vivos e mortos

Widows of the alive and dead.

One goes and the other one goes and all, all of them go.

Galicia stays without men that can work the land.

Instead you have orphans, instead you have lonely fields,

you have mothers that do not have children

and children that do not have a father.

And you have hearts that suffer long fatal absences,

widows of the alive and dead that live in longing.

Poem by RosalIa de Castro. Song by Amando Prada.
