Libre el Salvador
The Gang Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Miguel è ora di andare
Hai caricato il fucile?
Adios madre adios Consuelo
Oh signore dammi forza e coraggio
Popolo d'America
Non permettere che i tuoi figli
Vadano a uccidere in Salvador
Fino all'ultima pallottola

Fino all'ultimo respiro
Per la libertà de el Salvador
Libre el Salvador
Libre el Salvador
Non getterò la mia divisa stracciata
Un giorno ne sarò orgoglioso
A volte per essere uomini
Bisogna saper uccidere
Popolo d'America
Ricordi il Vietnam?
Questo paese è pronto a combattere
Fino alla vittoria finale
Le preghiere non bastano
A ridarti la dignità di uomo
Non abbasserò più la testa
Sono un combattente
Miguel suona una canzone
Domani forse sarò morto
Fino all'ultima pallottola
Fino all'ultimo respiro
Per la libertà de el Salvador

Libre el Salvador
Libre el Salvador

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Libre el Salvador" by The Gang convey the message of a person, Miguel, who is getting ready to fight for freedom in El Salvador. He asks if his gun has been loaded and says goodbye to his mother and Consuela. He asks for strength and courage from the Lord and addresses the people of America, asking them not to allow their children to go and kill in El Salvador. The lyrics show the commitment of Miguel and his fellow fighters to keep fighting until the last bullet and the last breath for the libertarian cause of El Salvador.

The song also mentions the memory of the Vietnam War and how its horrors have inspired the people of El Salvador to stand up and fight for their own freedom. The lyrics show that sometimes to be men, people must learn to kill. However, Miguel does not romanticize the violence of the war when he says that prayers alone cannot restore the dignity of man. He also refuses to lower his head, declaring himself to be a fighter.

Overall, the song is a commentary on the struggle for freedom against oppressive forces, and the commitment of individuals who are willing to fight to the death for that cause.
