‘‘ Comandante Che Guevara’’

CHORUS: Che Guevara, Commander Che Guevara, Commander Che Guevara, I come to bring you a message from your people, who are my people. The bravest people say it's a lie that you've died. Your firm and clear presence, like a shining star, remains alert and fighting, Commander Che Guevara. Men like you don't die, neither in history nor in time. How could men who are eternal die? The people say, Commander, that they follow the steely voice of your rifle, ablaze throughout the entire continent. The people say, Commander, that your legendary, valiant, and guerrilla heart remains firm in its place. Because you were more than a man, because you were light and example, you will live eternally in the heart of the people, Commander Che Guevara, Commander Che Guevara, Commander Che Guevara.

CORO: Che Guevara,
Comandante Che Guevara,
Comandante Che Guevara,
vengo a traerte un recado
de tu pueblo que es mi pueblo,
dice el pueblo más bravo
que es mentira que hayas muerto.

Tu presencia firme y clara
como estrella refulgente
sigue alerta y combatiente,
Comandante Che Guevara.

Hombres como tú no mueren
ni en la historia ni en el tiempo,
¿Cómo habrían de morirse
los hombres que son eternos?

Dice el pueblo, Comandante,
que sigue la voz de acero
de tu fusil encendido
por el continente entero.

Dice el pueblo, Comandante,
que sigue firme en su puesto,
tu corazón legendario
aguerrido y guerrillero.

Como fuiste más que un hombre,
como fuiste luz y ejemplo,
vivirás eternamente
en el corazón del pueblo,
Comandante Che Guevara,
Comandante Che Guevara,
Comandante Che Guevara.
